Curious about Entrepreneurship? Come See what's possible With UIC's Entrepreneurial Community!
Join fellow UIC students for an inside look at what it’s like to turn an idea into action. The 2026 Entrepreneurship Expo will feature conversations with current UIC student founders and alumni founders from a variety of backgrounds and industries.
You’ll have the chance to meet like-minded students from across campus, hear real stories and advice from UIC's entrepreneurs, and learn about opportunities to help move your own ideas forward this year.
Whether you're thinking about a high-tech venture, small business, side hustle, nonprofit, or simply exploring the possibilities, you are invited.
