Welcome to the McMillon Innovation Studio Demo Day - Spring 2025!

The McMillon Innovation Studio serves as an innovation hub to students across the University of Arkansas campus. Our mission is to develop future leaders, entrepreneurs, and innovators by cultivating their creative mindset and connecting them to opportunities to make real-world impact. Students in the studio are given access to valuable mentorship and resources, providing further support to cultivate their creative skills and empower them to deliver impact innovation through organizational, social, and entrepreneurial change.

9 Design and Product Teams have been working throughout the fall semester on solving real problems that organizations in our community are facing.

Teams will have prepared a pitch to compete on Demo Day in Adohi Hall.
