2021 Fall JMC
Entrepreneurship Expo Big ideas and dreams of big business converged at the Fall 2021 Entrepreneurship Expo as students from Florida State University’s Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship showcased their companies, products, and services. The group of entrepreneurs gathered under tents on Landis Green included about 30 Jim Moran College current students, offering up a potpourri of products that ran from lawn-care services to handbags made from reclaimed boat sails. Jim Moran College STEM Entrepreneur in Residence Jeff Whalen said the event is the culmination of hard work by the students enrolled in the college’s Experiences in Entrepreneurship courses, and it’s also an example of the college delivering on its mission to inspire innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset in its students. “We are an entrepreneurship program so it seems intuitive that our students should graduate having started and run a business,” he said. “During these courses, which span two consecutive semesters, they all start businesses and this expo is their opportunity to sell what they’ve created through the curriculum.”
