Chicago Innovation Exchange

The Chicago Innovation Exchange (CIE) is the University of Chicago's new center to help scholars and entrepreneurs translate their ideas and new technologies into startup businesses and products.

The CIE will provide space for proof-of-concept work, business incubation, collaboration opportunities, and programming for new ventures by UChicago faculty, students, and staff, as well as local entrepreneurs. We are cultivating partnerships to connect emerging entrepreneurs with Chicago's broader innovation ecosystem and to drive the creation of new businesses, jobs, and economic activity in the city and surrounding region.

Tune in to hear from innovators and entrepreneurs, and watch clips from events and activities taking place at the CIE.
