What is Arrowhead Center?
Arrowhead Center is your partner, working to take advantage of innovation and business opportunities that improve the region’s economy.
These programs would not be possible without the generous support from sponsors like the Hunt Family Foundation, the de la Vega Fosters, and the many public and private funders who share our vision.
Our mission is to promote entrepreneurship and innovation, creating economic opportunity. At Arrowhead, we help innovators, entrepreneurs, and small businesses at any stage start and grow through our services, resources, expertise, and connections. We are also the technology transfer and commercialization arm of NMSU, working with campus inventors and innovators to protect their work and ensure it reaches the broadest possible markets. While we are based at NMSU in Las Cruces, NM and are deeply engaged in our on-campus community, we also work with people across the state, providing advice, mentorship, education, and hands-on experiences to pioneer new technologies, businesses, and partnerships.
Arrowhead's Commitment to Those We Serve
Arrowhead is a key element in fulfilling NMSU’s mission as a land-grant university: providing education and opportunity to all who call New Mexico home. Our state is made up of a broad range of landscapes, communities, and populations. Arrowhead prioritizes programming that draws in people from areas and groups that may not have benefitted from exploration of innovation and entrepreneurship. We meet our clients and partners where they are – learning from each other to position New Mexicans for success.
