Pop up innovation exercises
Students at our university tend to lack the information about our robust start-up and entrepreneurship infrastructure. During our prototyping phase of tackling our [Landscape Canvas Synthesis](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1R2VFCUqoX-CR5sDqWEpmYpjifsJs8IwsRBcf_jDb3XE/edit#gid=618047480) 's second problem. We were inspired by Tom Wujec from Autodesk's pop up creativity and innovation. Not only did the activity yield interesting results, the people who participated seemed to enjoy themselves. We decided that doing random pop-up activities followed by information about the university's resources has a shot at igniting passion currently residing in a few students. We believe that these events done at scale could have a meaningful impact on the university's undergraduate culture surrounding innovation.
Innovation Awareness
The school offers a variety of services to students to assist them in their ventures. We realized that many of the services/events that the school's Office of Entrepreneurship and Innovation Partnerships offers get lost in a number of announcements that the students get. One our main priorities are to bring that information to the students in a way that won't become white noise. Our initiative is to contact every single professor in every single department and introduce them to The Office of E&IP. We want to make it a priority for the professors to make a bi-weekly announcement about entrepreneurial events that are going around on campus. We hope that this priority will raise awareness about innovation and entrepreneurship on campus within the students and bring about a huge boom in student ventures.
