Senator Coons helps kick off entrepreneurship program

Horn

Last week, Senator Coons took part in a launch celebration unveiling the new Horn Program in Entrepreneurship at UD.

Made possible by a generous gift from Charles and Patricia Horn, this program will encourage students to pursue the kind of entrepreneurial ideas that will power Delaware’s economy for years to come.

The Horn program will enhance and expand entrepreneurial studies at UD and be made up of a variety of initiatives like the Venture Development Center, a student business incubator, Hen Hatch, UD’s premier startup funding competition and an annual President’s Forum on Innovation and Entrepreneurship. It will also support new curricular offerings at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Chris believes that supporting our innovators and entrepreneurs is critical to our economic recovery.
