The future belongs to innovators—and to those leaders who can bring an entrepreneurial mindset to firms both large and small.
The UVA Darden School of Business Batten Institute for Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Technology seeks to challenge every Darden student to fulfill their entrepreneurial potential through transformational learning experiences and groundbreaking research. We seek to challenge students to fulfill their creative leadership potential in 3 ways: - Advancing Breakthrough Ideas - Education In and Out of the Classroom - Transforming Ideas into Value
We run flagship programs for Darden and UVA including the i.Lab Incubator and Entrepreneurship Cup. We support professional pathways and networks in technology, startups, ETA, social enterprise and VC (with the Richard A. Mayo Center for Asset Management). And we drive broad research-to-action initiatives on topics including Effectual Thinking & Action, Sustainability, Artificial Intelligence, Design Thinking and good disruption.
