CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (NEWSPLEX) -- The i.Lab at the University of Virginia has expanding its boundaries beyond Central Virginia by going virtual.
The Virtual i.Lab went live this summer, and it allows entrepreneurs who are currently in the incubator class to connect with UVA mentors and resources around the world.
Jason Brewster, the new i.Lab Incubator director, came up with the interactive digital platform.
"I launched similar platforms for national Geographic Magazine and Rails-to-Trails Conservancy at my previous start-up," he said. " In NatGeo's case, we scaled the platform to over 20,000 users and 400,000 posts."
