Members of the Salisbury Area Chamber of Commerce and other invited guests recently received a “sneak peek” of Salisbury University’s new Center for Entrepreneurship, currently under construction at SU Downtown.
Planned features include six offices and six individual “garages” for winners of SU’s Ratcliffe Foundation Shore Hatchery program and student Entrepreneurship Competitions, as well as a “makerspace” for robotics, small product assembly and technology-enhanced products with 3-D prototyping, and a textile workshop for fashion and theatre creations.
The facility, with build-out funded by a $5.5 million gift from entrepreneurs Dave and Patsy Rommel of Rommel Chesapeake, Inc., is expected to open in 2020. Naming opportunities within the facility are available to fund future operations.
