The Innovation + Design Hub is powered by Blackstone LaunchPad and focused on providing UC Merced students the resources and connections they need as an entrepreneur. Our hub is open to all students and alumni that are interested in being a change maker, regardless of their major or focus of study. Our space in the Kolligian Library room 108 is available for meetings, creating, studying, networking, and much more. We are a team of five that are focused on providing the best entrepreneur content and programming for students, alumni, and our campus community.
Through workshops, events, and a Speaker Series we provide programming to help you at any level of your entrepreneurial journey. From the idea stage to successful ventures, we are here to support you and provide opportunities to further your work. Browse our Resources for additional assistance as you begin your startup. From funding, social media management, marketing, and website creation you have access to everything on our page! Are we missing anything?
