  • Business and financial planning support through Gannon University's Beehive node. For information, contact Brad Gleason.
  • Marketing and branding through Edinboro University's Beehive, the Center for Branding and Strategic Communications. For information, contact Tony Peyronel.

Have questions about any of these services? You can contact Jake Marsh at Penn State Behrend.

Ready to get started? Fill out the Innovation Beehive Network's entry form to be connected to all of the Beehive sites.

Legal Assistance

Often, those engaged in innovation can stumble over legal issues. Early legal counsel can be instrumental in setting up corporation, researching intellectual property options and/or obstacles, or managing legal mistakes. Penn State Law offers assistance to entrepreneurs across Pennsylvania through the Happy Valley Launchbox at University Park.
