The University of Tennessee Is Building for the Future of Business. AI Is Just the Beginning.

On October 7, 2026 The University of Tennessee Knoxville announces the Institute for the Future of Business

According to the press release, this is a new initiative connecting “business leaders, students, and researchers to promote technological fluency, all while focusing on human potential.”

This will “create opportunities for collaboration and applied research.” Students will benefit by participating in “industry based projects, while businesses will gain access to thought leadership and a deep talent pool.”

We are excited to follow this initiative as it evolves here in Knoxville. Go VOLS!
