What is ideaLabs?

Since 2010, ideaLabs, a flagship program of Entrepreneurship Education Consortium Ohio (EEC Ohio), has brought together student entrepreneurs from 13 Northeast Ohio higher education institutions. Undergraduates across majors develop ventures, apply the feasibility analysis process, and present them to a panel of independent judges for cash prizes. Past successes include: DecisionDesk, NextToNothingBooks, PotHole Patch, Knotprofit, and D.R.U.M.
Sponsors may support the general event or allocate their contributions toward prizes, refreshments, or other customized opportunities. We look forward to finding a solution that meets your sponsorship goals!
