2012 Course to Focus on Local Economic Growth through Entrepreneurship

CIC2020 is excited to announce that the Proseminar in Civic Entrepreneurship, formerly known as the CIC Leadership Institute, will be offered for the fifth consecutive year during the Spring 2012 semester to a select group of students at Binghamton University. Building off the past years of CIC student research, the forthcoming cohort of students will be working to produce a task force report that focuses on the creation of an innovative venture accelerator that fosters student ingenuity and enterprise, establishes linkages to resources, and builds relationships with leaders of entrepreneurial initiatives on campus and in the community.
