East Lansing's The Hatch Facility Designed to Incubate Student Entrepreneurs

Less than a year after creating its first incubator, the City of East Lansing will open its second, this one designed to foster student entrepreneurs.

According to excerpts from the article:

The Hatch will be located in the 1,500-square-foot gallery at Scene Metrospace, an alternative art and performance venue at 110 Charles St. It'll be open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mondays through Wednesdays, the days Scene Metrospace is closed.

When it opens, The Hatch will be similar to the Technology Innovation Center in that it offers low-cost workspace for entrepreneurs to do business. But The Hatch is solely for students.

"One of the major benefits of this space is that chance encounter with somebody that's doing something similar to what you're doing or ancillary to what you're doing, and the two organizations move forward together or start doing business together," Smith said.
