QU Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation

Innovators Of Tomorrow Expo allows young teens, adults to showcase small businesses Young entrepreneurs had the opportunity to showcase their businesses Saturday during the Innovators of Tomorrow Expo on the campus of Quincy University.

Congratulations QU student, Mariska Sheurman, for having a great business at the Innovators of Tomorrow Expo! Great job Miss Quincy’s Teen Olivia Martinez for your planning and organization skills!

The Makerspace has been busy! You can learn and have fun at the same time(especially with free coffee). We are adding extra capabilities for next semester and are already looking forward to seeing what innovative ideas the students have.

QU E-Club ended the semester with a fun outing at The Range at KC! It was a fun and productive semester with a great group of students.

E-Club students made a solid profit on their spring business and wanted to share a percentage with a nonprofit business in our community. They selected Sleep in Heavenly Peace - IL, Liberty Area! It was rewarding to see the check presentation.

QU Alum, Mike DiSalvo, interacted with the E-Club students to challenge them and encourage them to reach for their dreams! Mike owns PurposePath Capital and shared his journey in an honest and fun format that the students could relate to.

Thank you to Quincy Metal Fabricators for providing a tour to the E-Club! C. David Nuessen and Brian Musholt explained company history, processes, and customer needs. This is a great example of a company which was started to meet a customer demand, and not just a passion of the founder.

QU student Ben Schramm is producing t-shirts in the Makerspace to promote his business. Check out www.bb-window-washing.com. Good luck Ben!

Thank you Michael Libmann, financial professional with Prudential, for sharing your wisdom about investing and marketing with the E-Club.
