This past week, UPEI launched its new student entrepreneurship hub. Named in honour of UPEI’s former chancellor, the Catherine Callbeck Centre for Entrepreneurship was made possible through a $2.25 million gift from the River Philip Foundation, a contribution of $372,000 from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency and a further $372,000 from Innovation PEI, and a $100,000 donation from the Credit Unions of PEI.
The innovation hub will offer unique learning opportunities and programs that support student entrepreneurship and provide access for community partners to connect with on-campus talent.
