In "Innovation for Impact," a class also known as "Hacking 4 Climate" that was offered for the first time this fall and will be offered in the winter quarter, six teams of five students are assigned to investigate an environmental issue. During the investigation, which involves speaking with companies, advocates and other issue stakeholders, the students search for gaps that could lead to opportunities for a business-based solution in the form of a startup.
