Western Kentucky University

The WKU Konexon's Community Portal is here to provide a resource to entrepreneurs and those who may want to be an entrepreneur for the commercialization of new technologies.  The portal is managed by the WKU Research Foundation and is here to help. 

The WKU Research Foundation (RF) Board is composed of members with expertise in various areas of science, technology, entrepreneurship, business development, economic development, and fundraising.  Because of the expertise of its members, this Board has the potential to connect resources to advance initiatives developed at WKU by faculty and students.  For example, these resources could include:

• Digital Marketing

• The Kentucky Innovation Network

• Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce

• Regional Small Business Development Center

• Intellectual Property Committee

• Engineering and Manufacturing Commercialization Center

• WKU Student Business Accelerator

• Regional Entrepreneurs

• Others

The RF Board is interested in facilitating the connection of these resources to several campus initiatives that will support their growth and long term viability.
