IEEE Entrepreneurship Portal Revamp

The portal is an online resource for growing ideas and finding IEEE activity relevant to startup companies and founders. The site is comprised of innovative tools, informative resources, and local and regional event schedules. The IEEE Entrepreneurship mission is to provide resources and services to foster entrepreneurial engineering and technological innovation for the benefit of humanity and the portal serves as a digital application of this mission.

How do the recent changes to the portal affect the IEEE digital presence?

The main focus of the update is to improve digital presence by enhancing interface design while retaining the user-friendly qualities that were already in place. This achievement came to fruition via the creation/adaptation of simple page layouts, updated graphics, clear and concise drop-down menus, rebranding of key promotional marketing phrases i.e. IEEE N3XT® Stars has officially been renamed IEEE Entrepreneurship Stars. 

The portal facilitates connections that lead to successful partnerships within the community. Most startups need as much financial help as they can get; which is why accessing resources is continuously made available through the small business selections from IEEE Member Benefits.

Take a moment to learn about these additional services that are now available to the community: 

The Global Startup Accelerator Index | Pilot – an IEEE information resource for researching entrepreneurship that includes universities, co-working spaces, pitch competitions, incubators, accelerators, grants, and funding. Entrepreneurs at any stage in the process from aspiring, to early-stage, to seasoned founders will want to delve into the Global Startup Accelerator Index. 

Powered by IEEE Program – an option-to-join network of like-minded rebels with a cause, which allows access to a comprehensive suite of complementary benefits that save time and money so focus can be geared towards the big ideas. 

Honors & Recognitions – IEEE offers honors & recognitions that recognize entrepreneurial excellence for which IEEE members can be considered. Categories include career excellence, impressive initiatives, and skills in entrepreneurship, as well as in industry leadership.

The IEEE Entrepreneurship team would like to acknowledge Monica Naureckas | Director, Digital & Creative Innovations and Alin Iancau | Digital Experience Specialist, Digital & Creative Innovation contributions to the major revamp of the portal. For questions about the new website, contact the team.
