''Historically, local economic development has been an important mission of the nation’s large universities[http://universityinnovation. Many of America’s leading universitiesorg/wiki/University_of_California, particularly land-grant universities, have always felt a strong responsibility for the betterment _Berkeley_Student_Priorities#Related_Links University of their surrounding communities. These daysCalifornia, universities are increasingly focusing on innovation and entrepreneurship as key contributors to the growth and success of local communities. Universities are requesting the federal government to include commercialization and innovation-driven economic development in their grant programs. In addition, regional economic development planning now often starts with an assessment of a local university’s research strengths. In turn, universities are seeking partners to supplement their strengths and overcome their weaknesses through partnerships with community colleges, non-profit economic development agencies, governments, and entrepreneurship groups. Some universities, such as Tulane University, are asking their students and faculty to contribute to local community development through service and projects. Others, such as North Carolina State University, are building innovation-driven campuses that help surrounding cities and communities prosper.''Berkeley Student Priorities]

The University of California, Berkeley is leading the forefront in student innovation and entrepreneurship (I&E) in higher education. Students have the options to pursue I&E classes through the Saturdja Center, or develop their own ventures with the support of The House, Skydeck and various startup competitions led by the Haas School of Business. These various resources have encouraged collaboration between cross-disciplines from students and faculty.
UC Berkeley is ranked as the "#2 university worldwide for producing venture-backed entrepreneurs" (Skydeck). This is possible because of the campus's commitment to bringing diverse students together in the classroom and spaces of collaboration, creating their own curriculum for entrepreneurship & tech through the Saturdja Center, and funding student ideas into scaleable businesses.
== Encouraging Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==
Faculty innovation and entrepreneurship is seen both inside and outside the classroom. The faculty in the College of Letters & Science (L&S) collaborated with the Berkeley-Haas Entrepreneurship Program to guide students to turn their ideas into scaleable ventures. This is seen through interactive courses like the L&S 5 and L&S 105, where entrepreneurs share their experiences on what it means to be an "entrepreneur". By connecting humanities with business, students and faculty from non-traditional entrepreneurial backgrounds are gaining the opportunity to understand what it means to start a venture.
Outside of the classroom, the campus partners with various industries to ideate, inspire and invent new forms of technologies. For example, Berkeley launched RISElab (Real-time Intelligence with Secure Execution), sponsored by IBM, Intel, GE Digital, and more, to bring together faculty and students to explore and innovate Big Data analytics. The Berkeley Institute for Data Science (BIDS) fosters collaboration between the computer science, statistics and applied math departments between faculty and students to lead the data science revolution. Both RISElab and BIDS are just two of the many industry alliance programs that connect faculty, students and companies to cultivate faculty innovation and entrepreneurship.
== Actively supporting the university technology transfer function ==
Berkeley is a hub of entrepreneur and innovator opportunities for its students. Numerous resources connect aspiring students to professors, companies, and investors in the area. These resources include 'the House'University , AMPLab, Berkeley IP and Technology Transfer Offices (TTO) , Signature Innovation Fellow, Berkeley Angel Network, SkyDeck, Citirus Foundry, and Technology Licensing Offices (TLO) have traditionally been many more. All these programs are connected with faculties in specific schools like SkyDeck is with the hubs within universities where innovators Haas School of Business. They are connected to huge companies like AMPLab is with companies such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, IBM, etc. They are also connected with everything ranging from angel investors, venture capitalist, professors, and outside business leaders engage startups. Berkeley has plenty of resources available to commercialize inventionsits students. The recent burst Citirus Foundry for example, is an accelerator for founders building transformative technology companies. They invest and help found tech startups and startup idea from a select group of University of California students. == Facilitating university-industry collaboration == University research and innovation is the pinnacle of entrepreneurship change and development that is constantly occuring on campuses has greatly expanded campus. These developments are doing more than just reaching the role sphere of of the TTOs university itself: it connects students and professors with businesses and TLOs. Instead industries outside of merely focusing on campus, opening up the commercialization sphere of individual technologieschange and opportunities to a wider network of people. Research and innovation are currently a huge benefit for businesses and industries all throughout the nations. As technology expands and new research emerges, universities are forced to keep up with current trends and therefore, these offices now act are constantly searching for opportunities in which they are able to connect new emerging concepts and ideas with their own research as well as a central point where student education. In order to accomplish this, universities are starting to open up new spaces for students, as well as new startups and are trying to make their facultymore reachable and accessible. They also have implemented different programs in order to partner with students and different companies in order to offer students internships and other opportunities to expand their learning while staying in touch with university research. The University of California, alumniBerkeley is a prime example of a university that has been facilitating university-industry collaboration through their programs and facilities made available to students. The university has created a multitude of spaces for students and other aspiring startups to utilize including technology, entrepreneursindustrial park, investorsmanufacturing, and industry can connect with each otherwet lab space. These offices are now focused on identifying and supporting entrepreneurship One such example of a program on campusis the QB3 incubator network, helping startups find which offers up 2 incubator spaces for biotech startup companies looking to jumpstart their new technologies by laying down the best groundwork for their upcoming companies. The university also has opportunities for students to connect with alumni and faculty in order to promote entrepreneurship and building successful business models, changing innovation throughout the culture campus. One example of their universitiesthis the Berkeley Angel network, which connects students with alumni and creating companies that will former faculty in order to acquire angel investors for student startup ideas. This is an incredible way to create a community of people aspiring to be based entrepreneurs in the their communities around as well as creating a network for them to assist them in their journey. Lastly, the university. TTOs and TLOs have also expanded support beyond offers many mentoring, advisory or business networks for their traditional areasstudents to create a supportive environment that fosters the growth of their students. One program is VC connect which involves students, network entrepreneurs, and the VC/angel investor community. This VC connect program connects student innovations with Bay Area VCs in order to establish and form connections between students and investor communities. Another such as energy community that provides a business network on campus is Computer Science Graduate Entrepreneurs. This group is focused on creating a space for graduate students, alumni, and faculty of the Computer Science department to connect with one another and share ideas and common interests and therefore work together towards a common goal. The goal of this group is to create influential startups and life sciencescompanies with the aid of fellow graduates. They accomplish this by communication of goals, transferring of information about ideas, experiences, and connections with each new generation of people that are accepted into educationthis group. Lastly, social another program that provides advisory opportunities for students is the Haas Venture Fellows. This group aims to connect students with a wide alumni network within the Haas school of business that has contacts in the entrepreneurial world that would help students establish themselves after graduating from the university. It also provides an opportunity for students to learn hands-on what being a Venture Capitalist entitles and the responsibilities that come with it. It also gives VCs a way to keep in touch with the innovation, and agriculturenew ideas that are constantly being put-forth by the creative students that come from the university.''
