Georgia State University students who feel like they have the next big idea to become the next Bill Gates now have a place on campus to explore their creativity.

The state’s largest university is scheduled Wednesday to have a grand opening for LanuchGSU, its new incubator for student entrepreneurship and innovation. LaunchGSU will be located on the first floor of 58 Edgewood Ave., Atlanta.

LaunchGSU is open to all students with ideas for startup businesses. For students accepted to the program, LaunchGSU will offer a business mailing address, workshops, panels, talks and tours of other downtown Atlanta startup spaces and connections to other successful entrepreneurs in Atlanta.

LaunchGSU is part of Georgia State’s efforts to increase entrepreneurship and innovation.
