Ideation Station

Have an idea? Let’s talk about it.
You don’t need a business plan, a pitch deck, or even a fully formed idea to get started. Ideation Stations are casual, drop-in opportunities to connect one-on-one with Center for Entrepreneurship faculty and talk through what’s on your mind.

Bring your business idea, big question, challenge, or “what if?” and get personalized feedback, guidance, and resources to help you take your next step. Whether you’re thinking about starting a business, developing an idea, exploring entrepreneurship, or simply curious about where to begin, our faculty are here to help.

What can you bring to an Ideation Station?

  • A business idea you want to explore
  • A challenge you’re trying to solve
  • Questions about starting or growing a business
  • An idea for a product, service, or venture
  • A pitch you want feedback on
  • Questions about entrepreneurship resources and opportunities
  • Or simply a curiosity about entrepreneurship and where to start

Weekly Ideation Station Schedule:
Mondays | 9:00-9:30AM | Becky Prater
Tuesdays | 11:30AM-12:00PM | Neil Pollard
Wednesdays | 3:30-4:00PM | Adam Melnick
Thursdays | 8:45-9:25AM | Adam Melnick

Student Entrepreneur Mastermind Group

Build your network. Grow your ideas. Learn from people who are doing it.
The Student Entrepreneur Mastermind Group brings entrepreneurial-minded students together for weekly sessions designed to help you learn, connect, and grow.
