As an urban-serving public research institution, Wayne State plays a unique and important role in driving economic prosperity in Detroit, and the Division of Entrepreneurship and Economic Development (DEED) and TechTown Detroit play a big part in that work. DEED and TechTown are co-located in the university’s 12-acre Innovation District, which is anchored by the TechTown building, Industry Innovation Center, and I-Bio. Together, we are leading efforts to elevate the university’s economic impact, including through corporate engagement and a robust suite of entrepreneurship programs.

In this session, new faculty will learn about the various resources available through the Division of Entrepreneurship and Economic Development and TechTown, including:

  • Community and corporate partnerships (everything from event sponsorships to learning-by-doing experiences)
  • Collaborative workspace offerings, including co-working space memberships and drop-ins, suite rentals, event rental space
  • Small business & tech startup services from ideation to scaling
  • Entrepreneurial education services and trainings (available for students)
