The ANTrepreneur Center at UC Irvine is the premier resource for UC Irvine’s vast and growing entrepreneurial Anteater community. As a part of the Division of Undergraduate Education, the ANTrepreneur Center is dedicated to assisting students in becoming successful entrepreneurs through education, consultation, mentorship, and access to resources.

In a collaboration with UCI ANTrepreneur Center, we are helping to launch a program called Higher Education Friendly Franchise (HEdFran). Under this program, we introduce different franchise businesses to UCI undergrads and alumni. Learning more about different business models might help them to develop their innovative idea either through introducing a new concept or improving an existing idea.

We also expect that some of the current students or alumni be willing to start their business experience by purchasing a franchise from one of the HEdFran franchises. The higher education graduates constitute a very valuable part of the nation’s workforce. They are ready to strive very hard to appear successful, create their own cash flow and benefit their society through creating more jobs. Being part of such a huge network, is beneficial both for UCI students and alumni and for the franchise businesses as well.

If you wish to join us in this highly valuable effort to help nation’s job growth and develop economic activities in the U.S., please fill-out the form and let us know about your interest to be part of such a great program.
