== Five stages of discovery of I&E<br/> ==

'''"Students, innovation and entrepreneurship is important. Make it a priority." (Perceived Value): '''In this way, a workshop, student or faculty member is generating awareness about the importance of I&E to and perhaps conveying the fundamental elements of I&E to students. Students not looking for this information may happen upon I&E through courses, events like TEDx, workshops, speaker series and/or marketing and communications mechanisms designed to profile such activity on in higher education.

'''"So, you want to learn more." (Potential Value): '''In this phase, students realize I&E is important and want to get involved in a deeper way by learning more and developing their skill sets. Beginner-level information in the academic environment can be accessed by students through courses, extra-curricular clubs and program offerings, competitions and short-term ideation / venture creation activities like hackathons.

'''"You want to apply your knowledge to a specific project." (Applied Value): '''At this stage, a student wants to apply their knowledge of I&E to a specific challenge or program. They may form a design team or work solo to explore the potential of a unique innovation or venture opportunity. Resources in support of this stage help students strengthen ideas into well-developed and viable opportunities. These may include experiential courses, infrastructure (like innovation spaces or labs), and engagement with external industry partners.

'''"You have effectively engaged in I&E." (Realized Value):''' In this phase, a student or student-led team commits to an opportunity and works to see it through to impact, be it implementation in one location or commercial scale. The student(s) may license a technology, form or join a venture startup, attain legal status for their opportunity, and/or begin generating revenue for their innovation. Resources in support of this stage may include incubators / accelerators, seed funding sources, tech. transfer offices and grant writing resources on campus.

'''"You have fine-tuned your understanding of I&E and reframed your approach to your education and career." (Reframed Value):''' In this stage, a student venture is likely to move off-campus and look more like a typical growing small-medium sized enterprise or high-growth company. The student understands the innovation and entrepreneurship process and adopts an entrepreneurial mindset in all that they do. The student may demonstrate their command of I&E skills by applying it to changing venture strategy or pursuing new markets. A student may also join an existing venture or corporation, leading an intrapraneurial opportunity. Resources available to students in this stage may include technology parks, wet-lab and manufacturing space. Leadership assistance through business and capital networks, as well as mentors and advisors.
