UNC Charlotte officials recently opened the CO-LAB at UNC Charlotte Center City alongside entrepreneurs, innovators, corporate leaders and community members.
“CO-LAB is more than just a space — it’s a catalyst,” said Charlotte Chancellor Sharon L. Gaber. “It’s where entrepreneurs and innovators can access the expertise of UNC Charlotte and work together to tackle real-world challenges. We are proud to sponsor CO-LAB, and we can’t wait to see the ideas and breakthroughs that will emerge from this space.”
As the evening unfolded in the dynamic space across from The Dubois Center at UNC Charlotte, the community’s energy and creativity were on display.
“The phrase ‘To be daring in design and deliberate in delivery’ from the book ‘Titan: The Life of John D. Rockefeller Sr.’ resonates deeply with me tonight,” said Brad Yeckley, executive director of the Belk College of Business’s Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, of which CO-LAB is part. “It encapsulates the essence of CO-LAB’s journey from inception to today. As I reflect on that journey, I am reminded of the incredible collaboration and multitude of entities and individuals that have brought us here.”
