The CEIBS eLab offers the MBA Entrepreneurship & Investment Camp and the eLab Incubation Program annually to help students acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills in new venture creation, investment, and digital technology.

The ventures represent the newest generation of CEIBS innovators and cover a variety of sectors and business models.
