New to innovation?

GBIJ is designed to help you unlock your innovation potential and develop skills essential to innovating.

Do you already have an idea for an innovation?

GBIJ is designed to help you work through the key components of a good early-stage idea, collaborate with others, and get feedback on your idea.

Saturday starts with brainstorming on individual product/service ideas and ends with a final prototype and pitch for the team’s innovation. Experienced innovators and entrepreneurs will help guide you through the prototyping and final pitch.

This resume-building opportunity is open to all students of all disciplines.
