TAKING YOUR INCUBATOR PROGRAM TO THE NEXT LEVEL
Eric Smith, Executive Director, University of Arizona Center for Innovation
The University of Arizona Center for Innovation (UACI) has experienced significant growth over the past year, doubling the number of companies they serve in their incubator, increasing staff capacity and taking advantage of creative revenue streams and to bolster the level of support. This was not done by accident. Executive Director Eric Smith will take you through the organization’s growth journey, focusing on the strategy they developed at the end of 2019, and how they managed to execute on their strategy in the midst of the 2020 pandemic. The conversation will highlight UACI’s planning process, identified areas of focus, execution and the results realized so far. This session will benefit those who are thinking of starting an incubator program or taking an established program to the next level.
