Beginning with the 2018-2019 school year, VCU Brandcenter annually will award the Hull Foundation Endowed Scholarship to a VCU Brandcenter student demonstrating a keen interest in entrepreneurship. The Hull Foundation Endowed Scholarship is the first scholarship of VCU Brandcenter specific to entrepreneurism. “VCU Brandcenter is a hot-bed for innovation where young people are using their creativity to identify new solutions for businesses and brands,” said Pat Hull, a serial entrepreneur, investor and founder of The Hull Foundation. “I hope to use this scholarship not only to provide financial support to deserving students, but also to personally guide them during a critical time of their exploration into creativity and entrepreneurism.” A selection committee from the VCU Brandcenter and VCU School of Business will begin accepting applications for The Hull Foundation Endowed Scholarship in August 2018. Applicants can be first- or second-year Brandcenter students demonstrating a keen interest in business start- ups and desire to pursue entrepreneurism. “We are honored that Pat Hull, a globally known entrepreneur and philanthropist, is investing in VCU Brandcenter, a national leader in innovation,” said Helayne Spivak, executive director, VCU Brandcenter. “Over the past five years, we’ve seen an increasing number of students expressing interest in starting their own enterprises, rather than joining a company after graduating.
