<span style="font-size:large;">I learned that:</span>
=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">A key problem identified is that:</span> Ideas arriving for incubation in our university's entrepreneurial programs, in their majority, are not innovation based or mature enough.</span>===
=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">I believe this is occurring because:</span> The I&E ecosystem's idea generation efforts are still in development.</span>===
=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">This is a problem because:</span> This step directly affects the amount of successful startups produced by the innovation pipeline in our university.</span>===
=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">I plan to:</span> Promote a better ideation process for a more mature innovation pipeline in the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez.</span>===
=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">This will be done through:</span></span>===
<ul style="margin-left:.375in;direction:ltr;unicode-bidi:embed; margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in">
<li><span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">This will be done by developing </span>events similar<span style="font-family: Calibri;">to weekend ideation boot camps</span></span></li>
</ul>
=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">In conclusion I wish to:</span> Expose more student to industry-oriented innovation to enable a more mature ideation process. I believe this will 1) give more unified direction to the efforts of the internal innovation pipeline in Idea Platform and 2) drastically help more successful startups develop in our I&E Ecosystem not only at a campus level but Island-wide</span>===
