Finally, the [https://www3.nd.edu/~horsemen/ Four Horsemen Society] is a group that came together over four entrepreneurial attributes, creativity, initiative, risk-taking and business strategy; their name alludes to the famous Notre Dame football players that made up the backfield of Knute Rockne's historic team. Intent on connecting and supporting every student and alumni with an interest in entrepreneurship in order to really take advantage of the resources at hand, the program believes in the idea of, "who can't resist the desire to change the world through the intertwining of creativity and business - in short, through entrepreneurship". 
=== Design Spaces ===
In addition to both student- and faculty-driven programs, Notre Dame has developed three unique spaces to foster entrepreneurship, innovation and design thinking. The first, housed in an Engineering building, is the Engingeer Design Deck, or N3D. This workspace allows for Engineering students to seek out resources and training and helps facilitate hand-on learning. Students can bring work from class, independent ventures, or simply big ideas. Second, the Notre Dame Hesburgh Library has developed the Center for Digital Scholarship. This recent addition employs state-of-the-art technologies to transform the way in which teaching, research, and scholarship are preformed and preserved. Finally, Debartolo Hall, a dedicated classroom building, has developed the Innovation Room in the basement. Several groups on campus - from administrative to learning center to building management - partnered together to develop this innovative, imaginative and active learning environment. Basing their designs off of similar rooms as Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Minnesota and the University of Michigan, the room is intended to be as flexible as possible and to encourage active learning.
