Alabama Inno: Alabama leaders vital to building and sustaining local entrepreneurship
There is a lot of energy focused on entrepreneurship at The University of Alabama and across the state. In fact, my own job at UA’s Culverhouse College of Business is running the Alabama Entrepreneurship Institute (AEI), and as part of that role also managing The EDGE, Tuscaloosa’s incubator, and accelerator. I work daily with students, faculty, staff, and community members who want to start businesses and grow businesses. The startup stories are always energizing, and successful entrepreneurs motivate and help others.
