The Zahn Center for Entrepreneurship is a startup incubator for technology enabled companies, with a focus on hardware startups, that is, those that are developing physical products. Hardware startups are becoming a growing part of the entrepreneurial ecosystem in New York city and are bringing with them the next wave of product innovation! The resources of the center are focused on helping these startups address the unique challenges associated to prototype development, product design and manufacturing. But we don't just cover engineering, we provide mentorship, business acumen and community connections for our companies to evolve from a great idea into products in the hands of customers.
The center also intends to build and grow a strong hardware community in New York, and will provide prototyping services, events and classes aimed at expanding the knowledge base around entrepreneurship, technology and engineering. If there's something you want to learn in order to get your idea built, we've got you covered! We'll teach you to dazzle your friends with your 3D printed parts, we'll take you from a wired bread board to having your own slick looking PCBs, and we'll prescribe you with what it takes to prepare your product for manufacturing.
