Advancing Indiana University Entrepreneurs

IU Innovates serves as a front door for IU entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs to access the programs, people, departments, and resources that support students, faculty, and staff who wish to start companies, commercialize innovation, and/or explore entrepreneurship activities.

Core to pillars of student success, transformative research and creativity, and service to the state and beyond, IU Innovates ensures entrepreneurs know where to start, and continually access the right resource at the right time.

IU Innovates takes an entrepreneurship ecosystem approach. This means we account for all entrepreneurs and those who support them. We build on strengths, highlight impact, and connect people to each other. The foundation of our activities is a culture of helping each other.

Giving IU entrepreneurs a space to thrive

For IU entrepreneurs who are spending a few hours per week actively working on an idea or startup, IU Innovates provides a community space plus offers pre-incubation resources, including coworking, camaraderie, facilitated founder peer groups, networking opportunities, and navigation to the wide variety of resources at the university and beyond.

If you are interested in entrepreneurship, please email Noah Miller (nodmille@iu.edu), the 91ÖÆƬ³§ IU Innovates Community Manager, or Jana Szostek (jaszoste@iu.edu), the Director, to schedule an appointment. You can also attend an IU Innovates or Business Academy event. Community membership is available to undergraduates, graduate students, faculty and staff at Indiana University.
