In addition to our project pitch, we have recently launched a Tumblr to connect students to innovation and entrepreneurship with resourses both on and off of campus. The page, named '''[https://whyinnovation.tumblr.com/ whyinnovatio]n '''aims to engage students in a casual way and provide access to beneficial sources. We hope to inspire our fellow students to get involved with the untapped entrepreneurial community here at Binghamton.

=== Landscape Canvas Synthesis ===

In order to impliment these programs, we have created a timeline in which we can follow to implement these changes. We hope to launch more of these interactive events in the near future, starting in the current semester.

~~====~~ *'''Goal 1: Brainstorm and design or adapt previously made challenges for our campus community [Next 2-3 weeks] ~~====~~''' ~~====~~ *'''Goal 2: Test challenges on focus groups from each area of academia [Before the end of the month] ~~====~~''' ~~====~~ *'''Goal 3: Reach out to organizations and professors to run the activities [1.5 months away] ~~====~~''' ~~====~~ *'''Goal 4: Create advertisements and student awareness of events [2 weeks after Goal 3 is reached] ~~====~~''' ~~====~~ *'''Goal 5: Run a series of "prototype" runs across campus [2 weeks after Goal 4 is reached] ~~====~~'''~~====~~ *'''Goal 6: Disseminate surveys to participating and students for event revision, questions, and comments [1 week after events are ran] ~~====~~'''

=== Timeline for Innovation Awareness ===

*'''Goal 1: Conduct research and make a list of faculty contacts [should take around 2 weeks to complete]~~<br/>~~'''

*'''Goal 2: Compose e-mail directories and inquire about offering information about the Office of I&E and other entrepreneurial resources on campus [one week after the contact list is created]'''

*'''Goal 3: Create survey/information sheet to give out to willing professors; information should tell students about available resources and should be available on campus billboards or campus newspaper [3 week process]'''

*'''Goal 7: Once the space is completed, the event planned in Goal 6 can be the initial event in the makerspace [2 months, depending on construction process and coordination]'''

<br/>While this is a large undertaking, we believe that we have the power to create a workspace that is interactive and conducive to student innovation. With the training of our past fellows and the example of Stanford's d.School, we believe that we have the tools and ambition to bring such a space to campus, and hope that community industries and organizations will provide assistance through blueprint revision, funding, and support, no matter the means.
