Berkeley Haas Opens a New Home for Entrepreneurs

Entrepreneurship has historically been strong at Berkeley Haas. This year, in our P&Q rankings of the 100 Highest-Funded MBA startups of 2024, seven Haas startups made the list.

Haas just announced that their entrepreneurs will have a designated home. The business school is opening their new three story ‘eHub’ building this winter.

The eHub sits adjacent to campus and will serve as a gathering space for all things entrepreneurship – an incubator for innovation, meeting place for discussion, and a launch pad space for new ideas.

All types of entrepreneurs are welcome, from seasoned professionals to those who are “entrepre-curious,” as their Faculty Director Saikat Chaudhuri likes to say.

“We have a special focus on the entrepre-curious, because we need to lower the barriers for doing great things,” says Chaudhuri.

The eHub will offer three semester-long practice tracks, each designed to meet students exactly where they are in their entrepreneurial journey – SEARCH, TEST, and BUILD. Whether you’re just starting to explore ideas, need to validate your concept, or are ready to grow your startup, the eHub has a track for you.
