<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: transparent; white-space: pre-wrap; line-height: 1.15;">By providing a council and infrastructure for I&E to operate under, new students will not have to worry about finding resources or connections (because they will already be provided). They will be able to just focus on the movement and their ideas, goals, and design processes. It will make the entrepreneurial experience less of a trial and error process and more success stories will come out of the Georgia Tech entrepreneurial landscape. In addition, it will create a foundation on campus for other I&E movements to be built off of.</span></span></span>

<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">We hope to structure GT Innovation Month similarly to NYU UIF Terrence did for his school. We aim to showcase unique I&E entities across campus and off-campus in the Atlanta area by holding programs in their respective spaces. This will increase awareness of I&E, gain students for the campus movement, and allow the I&E community at GT to be strengthned and centralized.</span></span>
