Education and technological challenges are complex. Teaching philosophies that worked yesterday may not have the same impact today. Granting students degrees is not the only raison d’etre of a modern university. Conventional classroom settings do not inspire students to be creative. The establishment of an Academic Start-up Incubator is to help students understand the change and thus speed the adoption of new skills, new practices and new technologies. This entrepreneurial space is another way to connect students, faculty, technologists, librarians and alumni to create a community to foster exploration and turn our university campus into a living Academic Start-up Incubator.
