  • Networking Opportunities: The university will organize events where students can meet industry professionals, investors, and other people who can help them grow their businesses.
  • Support for Startups: Selected student startups will get access to resources and facilities within the university’s innovation center.
  • Connections to Funding: The program will also help students connect with potential investors and explore opportunities for getting seed funding.
