Make the page AI reads say plainly what Georgia Tech does for founders
Move 1 of 1 for Georgia Tech's team. Who: Whoever edits the website. Time: 45 min.
What to do
- Open https://www.gatech.edu/news/2025/06/03/georgia-tech-advancing-atlantas-tech-ecosystem. AI cites it when it names Georgia Tech.
- Near the top, say in plain sentences who it is for, what a founder or a company gets from you, and how to reach the right person.
- Keep it as text on the page, not inside an image, a PDF or a slide deck, so the engines can read it.

Why it helps
People's questions bring up Georgia Tech, and AI doesn't always recommend it. Where the terms aren't written down, the engines hedge or point elsewhere.
A clear page means AI describes you the way you would, and sends people to the right door.
The questions this is for
- How does a pre-revenue Atlanta founder get in front of accredited angel investors?
- Compare the main early-stage venture funds based in Atlanta by stage and check size.
- Non-dilutive funding options for an early-stage Atlanta startup
- Which Atlanta groups help founders with fundraising strategy rather than writing the check themselves?
- Where do Atlanta's most active angel investors spend their time?
What the engines say now
“Get inside ATDC at Georgia Tech.”
“particularly relevant for B2B companies where its Georgia Tech/Engage/corporate network is useful”
“Georgia Tech's Enterprise Innovation Institute has resources around government contracting”
How you'll know it worked
In December we ask the same questions again. On these questions, watch whether the engines describe Georgia Tech the way this page does.
