What Others Have To Say
Ken Van Winkle
President, NMSU-Alamogordo
Studio G has simply brought an important added dimension to the college experience at NMSU-A. It has given students who are interested in developing unique ideas access to expertise and financial assistance. It has made a huge difference in the lives of those students who truly are seeking ways to become entrepreneurs.
Victor Hughes
Founder ICNcrypt
Access to free professional services, including legal and accounting services, when starting a new business is of the utmost importance-this is one of the many benefits Studio G entrepreneurs enjoy!
Robin Benson
CEO/Inventor, RB Designs LLC
Studio G is the best place to get any entrepreneurial questions answered. The best resource for businesses. Studio G has been vital in my discovering and uncovering all the information I didn’t know in order to help me grow as an entrepreneur. I can’t imagine trying to get my now patent pending product from idea to market without Studio G!
Vic Bhatia
Co-founder, Hope One Alarm (New Mexico Tech)
Studio G is empowering. It puts the future of your business in YOUR hands. Studio G has provided me with resources to help me grow personally and professionally. Studio G has helped me not only develop my entrepreneurial skill-set but has led to networking opportunities that have benefited others and will quite possibly benefit society as a whole when our product goes to market.
Mariel Haddad
Co-founder, Timer Glove
Studio G has been a defining factor for the success of my business. Through support of the programs and advisors I was able to develop the project in a much faster and more efficient pace.
