In fall 2023, UB's Blackstone LaunchPad celebrated its relaunch as the Startup and Innovation Collaboratory Powered by Blackstone LaunchPad (CoLab), including a larger space on the third floor of the Student Union.

CoLab's renovated new home includes multiple collaboration spaces where students can take advantage of extensive mentorship and entrepreneurial support. From pitch competitions and fellowship programs to bootcamps and workshops, the CoLab's new home provides aspiring entrepreneurs with the expertise and resources to take their ideas and innovations to the next level.
