EPICentre
The Entrepreneurship, Practice and Innovation Centre (EPICentre) The Entrepreneurship, Practice and Innovation Centre (EPICentre) is the hub for all entrepreneurial endeavours on the University of Windsor campus. From extra-curricular activities in our entrepreneurship centre to hands-on workshops in our makerspace, students from all disciplines have the opportunity to explore and practice entrepreneurial thinking and culture. Moreover, aspiring students and recent graduates from any post-secondary institution have access to mentorship, a collaborative co-working space and funding opportunities to start and grow their businesses.
EPICentre operates two facilities. Our main facility, located on the 2nd floor of the Joyce Entrepreneurship Centre, is the collaborative space dedicated to entrepreneurial activities, including an open concept co-working space for startups. Our makerspace, the Windsor Mold Group EPIC Makers’ Base, is located in the Ed Lumley Centre for Engineering Innovation where students and makers come together to learn, explore, tinker and create prototypes.
