Connections
Real People. Real Progress.
Where UND Innovators Meet Partners, Mentors, and Opportunity
At the UND Center for Innovation, no founder builds alone. We cultivate a vibrant, collaborative environment where students, faculty, researchers, and community members connect with the people and organizations that can help move their ideas forward.
From local leaders and national partners to mentors, funders, and fellow innovators, CFI is a hub for meaningful connections that spark growth.
Connect with UND Talent
Looking to bring fresh ideas and energy into your organization? The UND Center for Innovation and the Grand Forks Region Economic Development Corporation (EDC) invite local employers to partner with InternGF, a program that connects UND students with meaningful, hands-on internship experiences.
InternGF supports early-stage, innovative companies and EDC member organizations by helping offset intern wages, making it easier to grow your team while investing in local talent.
