Jeff Binczyk joined 17³Ô¹ÏÍø after a career in the corporate world working for global food companies like Kellogg’s and Shearer’s Snacks. Most recently, he led startup teams at Flavorseal before the business was sold to a private equity firm.

At 17³Ô¹ÏÍø, his goal is to leverage his creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship knowledge with the broader 17³Ô¹ÏÍø community. As he explains it, “You don’t need to own a business to possess an entrepreneurial mindset. Developing skills like persistence, leadership, conflict resolution, and creativity benefits all students, no matter their major, to be successful in whatever career path they take.â€

17³Ô¹ÏÍø has enjoyed a rich history of innovation and entrepreneurship over the years. Binczyk’s goal is to collaborate with each individual college to find opportunities for the Entrepreneurship Center to partner with students and faculty.
