Hatcheries Dedicated Office Space

Hatchery Dedicated Office Space

As part of the John E. and Alice L. Butler Launch Pad, the undergraduate and graduate Hatchery provides a vibrant atmosphere conducive to making business progress, sharing ideas, and forming community.

The Hatchery functions like an incubator where student entrepreneurs have access to professional, semiprivate workspace to grow their businesses. Hatchery space is competitive. Typically, businesses need to be revenue producing or just prior to launch, possibly with beta customers, in order to be eligible.  

This professional, semiprivate workspace is granted to student businesses on a semester basis and students can reapply at the beginning of each semester. Hatchery space is located on the ground floor of Olin Hall.

Interested students must be members of the Butler Launch Pad to apply at the beginning of each semester. All Butler Launch Pad members are also welcome to use the co-working space available on the ground floor of the Blank Center.
