=Overview=Fellows must gauge their campus ecosystem based on five parameters as shown in the five sections below. To learn more about these five parameters visit this page: http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/The_Innovative_and_Entrepreneurial_UniversityPromoting student innovation and entrepreneurship ==

=Promoting The University of California, Berkeley is leading the forefront in student innovation and entrepreneurship=The research you conducted for your Landscape Canvas corresponds (I&E) in higher education. Students have the options to pursue I&E classes through the Saturdja Center, or develop their own ventures with the 5 parameters. Your research will be most robust in this section (Discoversupport of The House, Learn Skydeck and Experiment), related to "Promoting student innovation various startup competitions led by the Haas School of Business. These various resources have encouraged collaboration between cross-disciplines from students and entrepreneurshipfaculty."

=Encouraging faculty Since 2005, the Saturdja Center for Entrepreneurship & Tech (SCET) has pioneered the the practice of technology-focused innovation and entrepreneurship=While it doesn't seem as though it directly impacts you. Every year, students from diverse backgrounds participate in application-based classes offered by the SCET. These classes first start with awareness through the extent to which faculty are encouraged to innovate Newton Lecture Series and pursue entrepreneurial pathways really does help determine the extent to which they will encourage students Berkeley Method of Entrepreneurship Bootcamp (BMOE). Top executives from small startups to explore big companies share their innovative and entrepreneurial potential. Encouragement at journey in the faculty level is one of Lecture Series, and the things that differentiates more developed I&E ecosystems. Under BMOE provides students the "Encouraging faculty innovation opportunity to pitch and create their own in startup in one-week! That awarness is then chanelled to theory and entrepreneurship" categorypractice through semester collider projects, challenges labs, please provide a succinct view & skills development courses. The goal of whether faculty are supported the SCET is to be guide students to develop an entrepreneurial mindset to launch their startup in or commercialize their researchafter college. 

=Actively supporting the university technology transfer function=Your research about IP policies If a student decides to launch their startup while in "Pursue" in the Landscape Canvas will give you college, they can reach out to The House and Skydeck for initial seed funding. The House also provides a view into the resources your technology transfer office providesworkspace for aspiring entrepreneurs to collaborate and innovate together. Include this overview in "Actively supporting the university technology transfer function"Similar to The House, Skydeck is UC Berkeley's primary startup accelerator. If your school doesn't have Skydeck was founded on a technology transfer officepartnership between the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research, you can skip this sectionthe College of Engineering and the Haas School of Business, with the goal of bringing students from multidisciplinary backgrounds transform their discoveries into startup ventures. 

=Facilitating UC Berkeley is ranked as the "#2 universityworldwide for producing venture-industry collaboration=The backed entrepreneurs"Spin Out" section (Skydeck). This is possible because of your Landscape Canvas relates the campus's commitment to research centers, industrial parks bringing diverse students together in the classroom and industry/mentor networks and will give you a sense spaces of whether collaboration, creating their own curriculum for entrepreneurship & tech through the University is "Facilitating University-Industry CollaborationSaturdja Center, and funding student ideas into scaleable businesses." 

=Engaging with regional = Encouraging Faculty Innovation and local economic development effortsEntrepreneurship ==The "Spin Out" section of your Landscape Canvas also reveals the extent to which the University is engaging with regional and local economic development efforts. Many campuses also have an economic development office and staff whose responsibility it is to leverage the University's research and development for positive local economic benefit.

Hyperlink Outside of the following:classroom, the campus partners with various industries to ideate, inspire and invent new forms of technologies. For example, Berkeley launched RISElab (Real-time Intelligence with Secure Execution), sponsored by IBM, Intel, GE Digital, and more, to bring together faculty and students to explore and innovate Big Data analytics. The Berkeley Institute for Data Science (BIDS) fosters collaboration between the computer science, statistics and applied math departments between faculty and students to lead the data science revolution. Both RISElab and BIDS are just two of the many industry alliance programs that connect faculty, students and companies to cultivate faculty innovation and entrepreneurship. 

Berkeley is a hub of entrepreneur andinnovator opportunities for its students. Numerous resources connect aspiring students to professors, companies, and investors in the area. These resources include 'the House', AMPLab, Berkeley IP and Technology Transfer, Signature Innovation Fellow, Berkeley Angel Network, SkyDeck, Citirus Foundry, and many more. All these programs are connected with faculties in specific schools like SkyDeck is with the Haas School of Business. They are connected to huge companies like AMPLab is with companies such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, IBM, etc. They are also connected with everything ranging from angel investors, venture capitalist, professors, and startups. Berkeley has plenty of resources available to its students. Citirus Foundry for example, is an accelerator for founders building transformative technology companies. They invest and help found tech startups and startup idea from a select group of University of California students. 

When you University research and innovation is the pinnacle of change and development that is constantly occuring on campus. These developments are donedoing more than just reaching the sphere of of the university itself: it connects students and professors with businesses and industries outside of campus, add opening up the tag sphere of change and opportunities to a wider network of people. Research and innovation are currently a huge benefit for businesses and industries all throughout the nations. As technology expands and new research emerges, universities are forced to keep up with current trends and therefore, are constantly searching for opportunities in which they are able to connect new emerging concepts and ideas with their own research as well as student education. In order to accomplish this, universities are starting to open up new spaces for students as well as new startups and are trying to make their faculty more reachable and accessible. They also have implemented different programs in order to partner with students and different companies in order to offer students internships and other opportunities to expand their learning while staying in touch with university research. The University of California, Berkeley is a prime example of a university that has been facilitating university-industry collaboration through their programs and facilities made available to students. The university has created a multitude of spaces for students and other aspiring startups to utilize including technology, industrial park, manufacturing, and wet lab space. One such example of a program on campus is at the bottom QB3 incubator network, which offers up 2 incubator spaces for biotech startup companies looking to jumpstart their new technologies by laying down the groundwork for their upcoming companies. The university also has opportunities for students to connect with alumni and faculty in order to promote entrepreneurship and innovation throughout the campus. One example of this the Berkeley Angel network, which connects students with alumni and former faculty in order to acquire angel investors for student startup ideas. This is an incredible way to create a community of people aspiring to be entrepreneurs in their communities as well as creating a network for them to assist them in their journey. Lastly, the university also offers many mentoring, advisory or business networks for their students to create a supportive environment that fosters the growth of every their students. One program is VC connect which involves students, network entrepreneurs, and the VC/angel investor community. This VC connect program connects student innovations with Bay Area VCs in order to establish and form connections between students and investor communities. Another such community that provides a business network on campus overview page so is Computer Science Graduate Entrepreneurs. This group is focused on creating a space for graduate students, alumni, and faculty of the Computer Science department to connect with one another and share ideas and common interests and therefore work together towards a common goal. The goal of this group is to create influential startups and companies with the aid of fellow graduates. They accomplish this by communication of goals, transferring of information about ideas, experiences, and connections with each new generation of people that are accepted into this group. Lastly, another program that provides advisory opportunities for students is the Haas Venture Fellows. This group aims to connect students with a wide alumni network within the Haas school of business that has contacts in the entrepreneurial world that would help students establish themselves after graduating from the university. It also provides an opportunity for students to learn hands-on what being a Venture Capitalist entitles and the responsibilities that come with it . It also gives VCs a way to keep in touch with the innovation and new ideas that are constantly being put-forth by the creative students that come from the university. Because the University is listed hands-on with student learning in innovation and research by creating multiple programs for students, faculty, and alumni, we have concluded that it does its part to facilitate university and industry innovation. == Engaging with regional and local economic development efforts == Various programs on campus are participating in regional and local economic development efforts to grow the culture of entrepreneurship and innovation on campus. The Berkeley Angel Network brings together angel investors, UC Berkeley faculty and alumni to help scale startups started by students. These students are connected to a huge network of mentors to guide them in their business model canvas, team synergy and execution of their strategies. Similar to the Berkeley Angel Network, there are numerous accelerators on campus that transform startups into fundable businesses. Launch brings in UC Berkeley faculty and serial-entrepreneur mentors to connect student entrepreneurs to working professionals, develop their MVPs, and gain initial funding. If students are looking for biotech accelerators, the QB3-CLSA Accelerator helps their members with research and commercializing their products. These Accelerator programs are opportunities for students to gain the support and space to scale their startups. Outside of network and mentorship, Berkeley provides numerous opportunities for seed funding including the Berkeley-Haas Dean's Startup Seed Fund and the House fund. The House Fund was started by a Berkeley student because he realized that there are limited programs on campus that invest in student discoveries. Not only do they provide initial funding, but they also provide a collaborative environment for student-entrepreneurs to work with their teams. From networking to seed funding, UC Berkeley is transforming the way students develop their startups into successful ventures.&nbsp; == Related Links == [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/University_of_California,_Berkeley_Student_Priorities#Related_Links University of California, Berkeley&nbsp;Student Priorities] === University Innovation Fellows === ==== <u>Spring 2017</u> ==== [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Precious_Listana Precious Listana] [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Alexander_Kamgar Alex Kamgar] [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Sydney_Zachariah#Biography Sydney Zachariah] [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/James_Zamora James Zamora] ==== <u>Fall 2013</u> ==== [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Jared_Karp Jared Karp] Adam Eastman <br/>[[Category:Universities Universities] category.][[Category:Schools]][[Category:University_of_California_Berkeley]]{{CatTree|University_of_California_Berkeley}}
