Student Coalition for Business Development

Who are we?

SCBD is a coalition of student leaders conceived in spring 2009 representing:

• GMU Students Center for Innovations - inventors.gmu.edu
• Mason Entrepreneurs - www.gmu.edu/org/eclub
• GMU Real Estate Association for leaders - realgmu.com. 

Why form a coalition?

As leaders of entrepreneurial student organizations, we realized the goals and challenges we hold in common when recruiting dedicated students and organizing and marketing events. We decided to pool our resources together and centralize our communication to vastly increase continuity and operational efficiency. The result is an increase in overall efficiency as we utilize a larger pool of talent to allow members to specialize and harness comparative advantages in the areas of IT, marketing, management, PR, administration, graphic design, product design and logistics.

Our Mission

To facilitate the creation of innovative products and services and to foster economic progression by providing individual entrepreneurs with the information they need to move forward with their business ideas.
