Coaching Artify.com to Success In Techstars Program

One of the great things about being a professor is watching innovation and learning feed each other. Recently an Ivy Tech Community College team placed second overall in the recent Techstars Ball State University Entrepreneurship program. 

The project was called Artify.com and sought to beautify cities through connection of local authorities to artists of all types. I was one of the Ivy Tech Coaches and the Bradford Pear trees (often thought to be invasive but very hardy in any changing climate or environment) shown behind me are one suggestion of landscaping “artists.”
