Real-world Experience. Meaningful Connections.

Too often in industry, innovation is hampered by efficiency issues, client concerns or solutions that will directly impact the bottom line. 

In academia, exploratory research can sometimes miss the mark in applicability to industry practices. 

Innovation Alley is here to bridge the gap. 

By providing the environment for risk-taking, industry and academia will embrace new ways of thinking and working together to tackle real problems and solutions. 

Over the past five years, Marquette has developed innovation spaces across campus like the 707 Hub, Marquette Visualization Lab and the Athletic and Human Performance Research Center. The vision for Innovation Alley includes additional interactive and flexible spaces, which offer opportunities for industry to co-locate.
