<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;">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>
