The Hynes Institute is an emerging force that strives to prepare the future generation of entrepreneurs, innovators, and leaders to move the world. It also ensures that students develop the knowledge, skills, and experience necessary to create, lead, and innovate in an ever-changing global economy.</span></span></span><br/><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4472d48c-7fff-bb83-fb94-ed2f2a5d2e4b"><span style="color: rgb(29, 33, 38); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">At the Hynes Institute for Entrepreneurship & Innovation, their mission is “to create and foster an interdisciplinary community of Iona students who engage in entrepreneurial learning opportunities to develop an entrepreneurial mindset."</span></span></span><br/><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4472d48c-7fff-bb83-fb94-ed2f2a5d2e4b"><span style="color: rgb(29, 33, 38); font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Hynes Institute also includes GaelVentures, the start-up incubator space, which was created to “support student programming at Iona College and to serve the New Rochelle and greater Westchester area as a resource for its local entrepreneurship and business ecosystem.” GaelVentures is temporarily the home of the Hynes Institute and is the physical space for the majority of curricular and co-curricular programming. In the future, “the venue will look to give start-up support, mentorship, and funding to entrepreneurs in the student and community incubator.”</span></span></span></span>
