What is CyBIZ Lab?
The Iowa State University CyBIZ Lab provides the opportunity for cross-functional teams of undergraduate and graduate students to work on business and organizational projects. Students gain hands-on experience working to solve real business problems, and companies and organizations receive potential solutions to business issues from a perspective outside the company.
CyBIZ Lab services are available to existing businesses and corporations, new businesses, startups, university departments, and non-profit organizations. Consulting and startup projects are fee-based and priced according to complexity and timeframe. Live cases are conducted as part of a for-credit classroom experience.
Business projects may address organizational challenges including, but not limited to:
- Market Analysis
