What is the Landuyt Center for Entrepreneurship?
The Landuyt Center equips students and faculty to develop an entrepreneurial mindset and create innovative startups with global impact by providing courses, programs, events, ecosystem resources and opportunities.
The Landuyt Center for Entrepreneurship, formerly named the Technology Entrepreneur Center, was created in 2000. Created to highlight the University’s rich history and culture of innovation, the Landuyt Center continues to inspire its students to become the next generation of world-changing visionaries, leaders and entrepreneurs. This is accomplished through its courses, venture creation programs, workshops and other curricular and extra-curricular events that expose students to the concepts of technology innovation and market adoption.
The Landuyt Center offers on-campus and online courses and certificate programs and hosts outreach activities for students and alumni. The Landuyt Center also administers the annual Cozad New Venture Challenge and the Illinois Innovation Award, among several other programs. As of June 2018, the Office of the Associate Dean for Innovation and Entrepreneurship oversees the Landuyt Center.
