<span style="font-size:larger;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">IUPUI is just starting to break the surface of Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E). Even though we have the seeds of Entrepreneurship sown around our campus in the form of classes and competitions we really don't have a firm basis of innovation. A unanimous agreement between many of the leaders on campus who are currently looking to find ways to help boost student interest and make IUPUI a more I&E conscience campus is the necessary implementation of a "home base" for I&E in the form of Maker Space or an Institute for Innovation. </span></span>

<span style="font-size:larger;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(55, 62, 77); line-height: 15.36px; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: rgb(254, 254, 254);">IUPUI is currently collabortating with active research at the Lugar Center for Alt. Energy Resources. </span><span style="color: rgb(20, 24, 35); line-height: 17.94px; white-space: pre-wrap;">IUPUI's affiliation with the Luger Center for Alternative Energy Research stems from the school's dedication to innovative solutions to enivironmental problems as a research-based institution. In pursuit of alternative energies, student organizations such as The Brain Trust, Sustainability Councils, and SEDS actively attempt to bring student-led initiatives to a public and professional developmental level. Currently in progress is a bid for a self-sustained orbital space station for human life support, programs to increase environment-sustainable awareness in the community, and a project to produce self-contained shipping crate housing solutions for students interested in sustainability, entrepreneurship, and innovation.</span></span></span>

<span style="font-size:larger;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">With its urban location, IUPUI not only has strong interior innovation opportunity, but exteriorly, too. Leaders of Indianapolis have a vision of Indianapolis becoming the "Silicon Valley of the Midwest." Connecting IUPUI to this ecosystem will provide students with resources and mentors to jumpstart their projects.</span></span>
