Fueling Economic Growth Through Research
Mike Child has worked alongside UC Davis to support entrepreneurship and innovation. He points to the university’s strength in preparing future business leaders who take research initiatives in agriculture, wine, fashion and biotech and turn them into companies.
By helping move research into the marketplace, UC Davis plays a direct role in job creation and economic growth. Federally funded research does more than generate ideas. It helps build businesses that create opportunity and strengthen communities.
"Entrepreneurship and young companies really drive the growth of the economy in the United States, and UC Davis is training the next generation of entrepreneurs.” –Mike Child
