The Hatchery
The Hatchery
Launching a freelance graphic design studio? Constructing an unmanned underwater vehicle?
Problem solving and value creation are essential. And every student from every discipline
can benefit from learning to balance their technical “know how” with those hallmarks
of an entrepreneurial mindset.
The Hatchery serves as a hub to help align and connect the wealth of entrepreneurship-related resources, knowledge, and vision at The University of Southern Mississippi.
By facilitating entrepreneurial experiences, The Hatchery helps increase student opportunities to make their skillsets more relevant, dynamic, adaptable, marketable, and consequentially more valuable in today’s rapidly changing labor market.
Southern Miss has long been one of the state’s leading voices for the advancement of entrepreneurship education and has helped inspire a generation of young entrepreneurs and innovators across Mississippi through programs like the Southern Entrepreneurship Program and Master Teacher of Entrepreneurship.
Entrepreneurship is neither a science nor an art. It is a practice.

Several well-appointed brainstorm zones, including the lab’s popular tufted leather sofa and golden velvet armchairs, invite curious visitors to pause for a moment and connect with others on an entrepreneurial journey.
