The TechArb is a coworking space for University of Michigan students. Humbly enough, it began with a few students looking for a shared office to work on their start-ups. Through assistance from RPM Ventures and Maize Ventures, the TechArb was born in May 09 as a 4-month experiment to support 30 students as they run nine distinct start-ups.
Our objectives are two-fold:
1) Create a community of like-minded student entrepreneurs, each working on distinct ventures, but collaborating to boost the probability of each venture’s success.
2) Catalogue the entire experiment in the hopes of justifying a University-sponsored “techarb” for years to come.
Our site is in construction, so expect much more content in the weeks to come. Thanks for visiting!
