1. the act of innovating; introduction of new ideas or methods applied successfully to create value



Mirroring MIT’s motto of “mens et manus” (”mind and hand”), the MIT Innovation Club seeks to understand innovation as a science and practice of generating and implementing new ideas.

The Innovation Club was founded in 2003 to celebrate over 130 years of MIT innovation and to challenge the students of today to keep inventing the future. In this pursuit, the Club engages students, faculty, and the business community through interactive programs such as Tech Testbeds, IdeaExchange brainstorms, Innovation Labs, and more.

The Club helps its 250+ members generate innovative ideas, identify target applications for new technologies, and develop the skills that can make a difference between success and failure in a start-up or an established company. The balance of our intellectual and practical endeavors makes us the Club that is very much about “where ideas create value.” For more information about the MIT Innovation Club, please explore this website, participate in our activities, or contact us.
