Abstract
SUNY Cortland and key stakeholders in the Cortland community have developed relationships and leveraged their resources to proactively pursue economic development activity through the creation of an entrepreneurship program. The goal of the college/community partnership is to utilize the expertise in the business community to help foster new business generation from SUNY Cortland students. Additionally, the small businesses would receive help from SUNY Cortland students through internships, conducting business research and providing other services that the business may not have capacity to provide for themselves.
