'''This organization is a non-profit that works to solve crises concerning accessing clean water in Waslala, Nicaragua. Not only does the student group work to find funding for solutions, but they also utilize innovative thought to create technical solutions themselves.</span>

This Center for Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship at Villanova works to accelerate opportunities for students across disciplines and colleges so they can develop their entrepreneurial ability and learn from each other to become more innovative thinkers. For example, the ICE Center typically has an Entrepreneur in Residence. This is an alum (currently Eric Adams) or a member of the community, who has experience with Entrepreneurship and comes in to educate Villanovans about effective ways to engage startups. Another interesting opportunity that the ICE Center provides is '''Phillanova ICE'''. This program supports students who wish to connect with the Philadelphia entrepreneurship ecosystem. ICE helps students fund their entry and travel to various events across the Philadelphia area. Events that aren’t already preapproved parts of the program can be requested by students who wish to access them. </span>
