UQIES - UQ Innovation & Entrepreneurship Society

UQIES - UQ Innovation & Entrepreneurship Society The most influential and active entrepreneurship society at The University of Queensland. We are not a society that does 20 events a semester.

Innovation and Entrepreneurship is no longer restricted to laboratories and a million dollar funding. The opportunity to innovate is no longer restricted to a select few people. And that is the very purpose of the UQIES as a society- to provide everyone an opportunity and a platform to give their idea a shot. We are a society that comes up with 200 ideas which are all equally interesting and fasci

nating. Members of our society are working on ideas ranging from drone technology to neuro-based learning to coffee ordering apps. We discuss ideas ranging from Space exploration to open education. Come join our community or sign up to keep upto date with what's happening!
