The University of Pittsburgh is a well-known leader in innovation within the fields of engineering and medical research.&nbsp; Translational research and entrepreneurship exist primarily at the institutional level.&nbsp; Many organizations exist, like the Institute of Entrepreneurial Excellence, to give budding entrepreneurs the needed resources and inspiration to proceed from ideation to market.&nbsp; In the last 20 years alone, such programs have created more than 800 startups and 7,000 jobs in the Pittsburgh area.&nbsp; Between the sheer amount of research conducted and available seed funding (Coulter Program for bioengineering devices, other VC connections through Institute of Entrepreneurial Excellence) Innovation and Entrepreneurship needs only to be catalyzed to take off, since all necessary ingredients are in abundance at the University of Pittsburgh.
