EnterpriseWorks

Where Innovation Becomes Market Reality

EnterpriseWorks empowers University of Illinois and community entrepreneurs to turn ideas into successful ventures. From the start to market launch, the incubator supports startups building disruptive technologies across agtech, biotechnology, software, materials sciences, and beyond.

Clients tackle transformative challenges by bringing university research to market. Startups here move discoveries out of the lab and into the world, creating real solutions to pressing problems.

As the center of the Research Park, EnterpriseWorks connects emerging startups with corporate innovators, faculty, and students. The atrium hosts meetups and workshops where conversations and partnerships form, building a community where innovation happens.
