Congratulations to the 2007 Business Plan Competition Grand Prize Winners
Vision
The Baiada Center bridges education and entrepreneurship by
linking research, coursework and entrepreneurial thinking
with practical guidance for budding entrepreneurs.
Mission
Our mission is to develop entrepreneurial leaders and foster
the creation of successful technology ventures within the
Drexel communities.
Cross Disciplinary Focus
The deep interdisciplinary nature of the Baiada Center distinguishes
it from other university entrepreneurship programs. The deans
of each of the schools and colleges across the Drexel campus
have had a hand in the ongoing development of the Baiada Center.
Students from every academic discipline are encouraged to
participate through interactive workshops, entrepreneurial
courses, an annual business plan competition and entrepreneur
conference.
Professional Management
Seasoned entrepreneurs, business professionals, faculty and
administrators make up the Baiada Center's management team.
This unique partnership provides students with access to mentors
and potential partners in the business and investment community,
as well as a wealth of knowledge and resources from the academic
community.
