The Horn Initiative for Entrepreneurship - October 2012
Senator Coons joined members of the University of Delaware community at the unveiling of the Horn Initiative for Entrepreneurship on October 12, 2012. The Horn Initiative is anticipated to have a transformative impact on innovation and entrepreneurship through the expansion of curricular, co-curricular and outreach programing. At the event, aspiring entrepreneurs pitched their business ideas to try to win funding as part of the launch celebration. University of Delaware alumnus Charles Horn (’75) and his wife Patricia Horn committed $3 million for the initiative, which will be housed in the Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics.
