IHUB BANNER HERO

Sponsorship & Donations

Our mission is to foster collaboration and sharing of ideas to drive transformative innovation and empower individuals, businesses, and communities to thrive in an ever-changing world. We aim to inspire, connect, and support innovators, entrepreneurs, and organizations in their pursuit of groundbreaking ideas and solutions. However, we alone cannot accomplish this goal without the generous support of our community members and businesses.

There are so many ways to contribute including the opportunity to provide your professional services, volunteering to be a mentor or underwrite events, competitions, workshops and more. We are open to discussing the various benefits and recognition opportunities we can offer to individuals and companies, such as prominent branding during events and acknowledgment in marketing materials.

Your contributions will not only strengthen the educational landscape of Valparaiso University and the Innovation Hub but also the community you live and work in.

Below are some of the ways you can make an impact in the community!

  • In-Kind Donations: Sponsors can donate their professional service including hosting an event, speak at an event, or donate your time to work with a student or business.
  • Financial Contributions: Sponsors can make direct monetary donations to the Innovation Hub to support one of the center’s many events, workshops, competitions or programs.
  • Naming Rights: Sponsors can add their name to a competition, workshop, class or event. This will provide significant visibility and recognition while providing major support.
  • Mentorship: Be a mentor to aspiring innovators and entrepreneurs. Offer your guidance and support by sharing your insights, knowledge, and offering practical advice.
  • Fundraising: Partner with the Innovation Hub to organize fundraising events, galas, or networking events to help raise funds for the iHub initiatives.
