The Lubar Entrepreneurship Center is trying a new experiment called LEC Brown Bag Lunches on Wednesdays at noon. They are casual times for the LEC staff and any other students, faculty, and staff to catch up with one another over lunch. Topics have ranged from startup projects, current interests or passions, and business related questions.

Each week a group of about 5 – 10 people meet at the Touch Down and Launch space, room 203. No registration is required and anyone is invited to join.

Some Brown Bags are “hosted” by special guests to lead discussions on a range of topics. Students in the Startup Challenge program voted for these topics and the LEC arranged the guests.
