Department of Entrepreneurship Chair and John W. Altman Institute for Entrepreneurship Director Dr. Tim R. Holcomb Ph.D. will be leaving Miami University at the end of the year for the CEO role at Embarc Collective, a Tampa-based tech innovation leader ranked as the top incubation program in North America by UBI Global - Community For Business Incubators & Accelerators and considered one of the world’s leading startup hubs for early-stage tech entrepreneurs.
The lead role “aligns perfectly with Tim’s passion, expertise and experience,” said Dr. Jenny Darroch, dean of the Miami University Farmer School of Business. "Tim will leave a tremendous legacy, having built the John W. Altman Institute for Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneurship Department into one of the most successful in the world, and with graduates whose achievements are eclipsed only by the strong bond they maintain with the school."
“Under Tim’s leadership, the entrepreneurship program has become a major force for good, touching thousands of students across the university and setting them up for success," added John Altman MU '60, the first professor of entrepreneurship at the Farmer School of Business. "I am proud that the Institute carries my family’s name, and I thank Tim for his insight, drive, and dedication to excellence.”
Best wishes Tim. 1809 Capital would not exist without your inspiration, guidance, collaboration and support. You were the catalyst. It's been a blast to develop a national strategic network of Miami alumni entrepreneurs, Founders and VCs to support Miami's entrepreneurship mission. We look forward to continuing collaboration and further building the country's best undergrad entrepreneurship platform!
