Entrepreneurship Immersion Week 2014

Entrepreneurship Immersion Week (EIW) is an intensive one-week, academic immersion experience for undergraduates from all disciplines to immerse themselves in the skills needed to help them develop new business concepts and apply these skills in a team-based business concept competition. This year, teams of five students from each of the EEC eleven-member institutions will come together August 3-8 at the host school, University of Akron.
