鈥楾he 海角社区 Question鈥 asks how teaching innovation fuels 海角社区鈥檚 economy

Innovation fuels entrepreneurship in 海角社区. In recent years, several small business startups with novel ideas for products have created and sold them at a global scale. 

For more than a decade, the University of 海角社区 Foster Center for Innovation has collaborated with students, faculty, staff, startups and established organizations, and offered courses and other resources on how to innovate. It also serves as a hub for commercializing and developing businesses from university research.

Two U海角社区 alumni and startup founders 鈥 Amber Boutiette, co-founder of Marin Skincare, and Tyler Delargy, CEO of Real Time Reality 鈥 also join the podcast to share what they learned along their journeys to create new goods and enterprises.
