Cal Poly Center For Innovation and Entrepreneurship
The Cal Poly Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship is designed to enable students to interact with faculty, with experienced entrepreneurs, and with each other in ways that will enhance their educational experience as well as strengthen ties between the California entrepreneurial community and Cal Poly while enhancing the university’s historic strengths in technological innovation. Faculties not only innovate, but also conduct applied research on innovation processes – public policies, organizational processes, history and a range of important topics. The iQ Innovative Quest is a non-profit, philanthropic corporation founded by successful Cal Poly graduates and business leaders interested in giving back and enhancing innovation at the same time. The Ray Scherr Elevator Pitch Competition is to attract innovators and entrepreneurs from faculty and students across campus and integrate them into the entrepreneurial pipeline.

Famous quotes containing the words center and/or innovation:
“It is written in the Book of Usable Minutes
That all things have their center in their dying....”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Both cultures encourage innovation and experimentation, but are likely to reject the innovator if his innovation is not accepted by audiences. High culture experiments that are rejected by audiences in the creator’s lifetime may, however, become classics in another era, whereas popular culture experiments are forgotten if not immediately successful. Even so, in both cultures innovation is rare, although in high culture it is celebrated and in popular culture it is taken for granted.”
—Herbert J. Gans (b. 1927)
