==Strategy #1 Provide a Growth Factor for Student Innovation== === '''Project 1: Makerspace''' ===

A space that provides resources, raw materials, tools and technology to spark innovation and creativity (wood, circuit boards, 3D printers, sewing machines, bakery equipment, art supplies, software, etc.)   It will be important for this space to be on neutral ground and in a central local (not on the engineering side of campus, nor the business side). This space will also double as a small business incubator for students.

=== Project 2: Innovate A&T Panel Discussions ===

Panel Discussions are a great medium for educating students outside of the classroom. the Innovate A&T Panel Discussion Series will invite innovators, entrepreneurs, makerspace operators, support organizations, faculty, and administrators to speak to students and answer their questions regarding E&I on and off campus.

See flyer for fist panel discussion:

=== Project 3: Innovate A&T Pitch Contest ===

Weall care about the success and advancement of North Carolina A&T, and this annual innovation event will give students an opportunity to identify problems that they see on campus, and provide detailed and comprehensive solutions within a four minute pitch. The solutions will be presented to campus administration, and faculty members with the goal of providing a platform for student ideas on campus issues to the decision makers at A&T.

Online and mobile application that is a virtual store where student makers can sell their innovations. This is an effort to fill the funding gap for student entrepreneurs and innovators to generate funds. We can get this off the ground with very little funding required, and I will use my resources within the computer science department and school of business.
