== '''Strategy One: Expose'''<br/> ==

=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">'''&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tactic 1: 3 Day Startup'''</span></span> ===

<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">3DS will bring students through the beginning steps of launching a company or project through innovation on campus.&nbsp; This is an event that will allow students to learn by doing.&nbsp; 3DS teaches entrepreneurship skills such as ideation, customer discovery and venture pitching.&nbsp; This would be a beneficial event for students interested in E&I.<br/></span></span>

=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">'''&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tactic 2: Multidisciplinary Hackathon'''</span></span> ===

<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Hosting a hackathon on campus that invites students from all majors to join together to “hack” out an idea will expose students to innovation and entrepreneurship on campus.&nbsp; Students are constantly developing venture ideas and an event like this would allow them to gather a multidisciplinary team and work together to accomplish a goal.</span></span>

=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"></span></span>'''&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tactic 3: Workshop'''===

<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Providing weekly workshops for students to learn about the different aspects of entrepreneurship.&nbsp; This will give students the opportunity to learn from experienced individuals and expand their knowledge of the entrepreneurship and innovation.</span></span>

== '''Strategy Two: Create'''<br/> ==

=== '''&nbsp<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;&nbspfont-size: medium;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp"></span><span style="font-size:medium; ">Tactic 1: Makerspace</span><br/>'''===

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Creating an innovation space on campus will provide students with the tools they need to implement the many ideas they have.&nbsp; Allowing students to learn by doing will be a valuable asset to encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship on campus.&nbsp; An innovation space enables students from all disciplines to learn to think creatively.&nbsp; There are a vast amount of different activities that can be held at such a space.&nbsp; This will be a space that the University can advertise in order to attract more prospective students.&nbsp; All in all, an innovation space is a key factor in the pursuit of improving entrepreneurship and innovation throughout campus.</span>

=== <span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">'''&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tactic 2: Student-led investment fund'''</span></span> ===

<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Starting an investment fund led by students will give students to identify and student startups within the community.&nbsp; Having an investment fund run by and for students will provide capital for student-led startups and allow access to the mentoring of local entrepreneurs.&nbsp; This will also expose students to the Portland startup community.&nbsp; Raising capital while you’re still attending school is very difficult, and has the potential to deter students towards pursuing their ventures.&nbsp; Therefore, a student-led investment fund has the potential to be a valuable program at the University of Portland.</span></span>

== '''Strategy Three: Motivate'''<br/> ==

=== <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">'''&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tactic 1: Bring Entrepreneurial Speakers to campus'''</span> ===

<span style="font-size:medium;">Every year we have a Bauccio Lecture and bring in a speaker, but we should bring more speakers in throughout the year.&nbsp; Having a monthly speaker will motivate students to pursue their ideas, and that anything is possible.<br/></span>

=== <span style="font-size:medium;">'''&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tactic 2: Host a TEDx event on campus'''</span> ===

<span style="font-size:medium;">Hosting a TEDx event on campus focused on innovation and entrepreneurship can inspire the University into initiating a movement.&nbsp; TEDx events are known for their motivating speakers and talks, and an event like this on campus has the potential to attract a large amount of students and faculty.</span>

=== <span style="font-size:medium;">'''&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Tactic 3: Start Up Award'''</span> ===

<span style="font-size:medium;">Having an award that is given every year at the University will help motivate students to create meaningful ventures throughout the year.&nbsp; This will give students something to work towards while working on their ventures and promote entrepreneurship and innovation on campus.&nbsp; Instead of giving the startup a large cash prize every year, we can give them an award of value, not just money.</span>
