The University Innovation Fellowship objective is for students to develop high impact initiatives relating to topics of innovation and entrepreneurship (I&E). While developing a landscape study of the I&E ecosystem of the UPRM we saw a necessity for communities, programs, and events that promote industry-focused innovation.</span>'''</span>
