Auburn University Entrepreneurship Program | New Venture Accelerator
The New Venture Accelerator supports those who are looking to start a new business or who may need help growing an existing one. We have a team of Entrepreneurs-in-Residence who bring real world experience for the benefit of Auburn University students, faculty, and the local community through coaching, counseling, and mentoring. The New Venture Accelerator is jointly managed and governed by Auburn University’s Harbert College of Business and the Auburn Research and Technology Foundation.

Throughout the year, the entrepreneurship program supports Women Entrepreneurship Week along with other programs supporting innovation, business creativity, diversity & inclusion, and other fundraising events.
