This campus community has a track record of innovation and excellence dating back to 1839. For example, MU was the first university west of the Mississippi River. And of course, we developed the first — and best — journalism school in the nation. Now, through programs such as the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, the UM System Entrepreneur Quest and the Unions Entrepreneurial Program, our students, faculty and staff continue to expand the university’s community impact through innovation and entrepreneurship.

Join Chancellor Cartwright for this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast for his talk with Clay Cary, a senior studying business administration who is a serial entrepreneur; and Sara Cochran, the UM System director of entrepreneurship initiatives and MU’s interim director of the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation. They discuss the many ways Mizzou supports entrepreneurial activities on campus as well as how this benefits our state and the world.
