Sustain. Innovate. Thrive.

NC State alum Eli Hornstein’s company, Elysia Creative Biology, is curbing greenhouse gas emissions from cattle with university support. His startup, part of the NC Plant Science Initiative’s Seed2Grow incubator, uses engineered feed crops to reduce methane emissions.

NC State offers programs to help entrepreneurs at every step, from Innovation and Entrepreneurship`s Miller Fellows to the Office of Research Commercialization`s I-Corps program to the Plant Science Initiative`s incubator, and more. “Take advantage of some of the existing entrepreneurship programs at NC State to build your bridge and let that relationship try to grow a bit organically,” he says. 🌱

The Drs. Frank and Anoma Newlands Scholarship was established through a generous donation from the Newlands to support outstanding entrepreneurial efforts among NC State’s undergraduate student population. We are excited to announce Avaneesh Ravat as a 2024 recipient of the Drs. Frank and Anoma Newlands Entrepreneurship Scholarship!
