In an effort to get the ball rolling from the student end towards improving IUPUI's innovative mindset. The Brain Trust's first effort t was to apply to the University Innovation Fellows program to gain the knowlledge and know how to most effectively change the campus landscape. The main goal of the Brain Trust at IUPUI is to provide an environment for students to bring ideas into action. Even though Although this student organization has only been around for one semester, these 12 students have already begun to bring the process of bringing a designated innovation space to IUPUI and are now in the planning stages of with faculty to develop a real lasting entrepreneurial structureon campus.
