The University of Michigan’s Center for Entrepreneurship (CFE) honored co-founder Dr. Thomas Zurbuchen, with the presentation of a new award bearing his name, as well as the renaming of the center’s long-running Friday speaker series he launched, EHour.

Zurbuchen, a U-M professor in space science and aerospace engineering for more than 20 years, has put together a career spanning academia, private industry, and government. His commitment to connecting engineering and entrepreneurship resulted in CFE’s creation more than 17 years ago.
