NYU Stern’s Endless Frontier Labs captured the Prix Galien honor for best incubator, while Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business secured a $10 million commitment to fund 20 full-tuition scholarships in its M.S. in Global Real Assets program. Both moves signal business schools doubling down on commercialization and sector-aligned talent pipelines. NYU’s award highlights the role university accelerators play in translating lab discoveries into startups and in attracting industry partners. Deepak Hegde and EFL alumni were singled out for moving scientific breakthroughs toward patients. Georgetown’s gift from alumnus Bob Steers targets the expanding $100 trillion global real‑assets market and funds professorships to strengthen curriculum and faculty recruiting. Separately, NYU Stern’s incoming MBA class profile underscores a continuing premium on city‑based recruiting and experiential learning. Business schools are using incubators, targeted scholarships and hiring-focused curricula to align graduate programs with employer demand and to broaden commercialization pipelines. Note: Prix Galien is a prize recognizing excellence in life‑science innovation and commercialization.
