WSU received a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to teach its faculty and students how to come up with the “Next Big Thing” and become better entrepreneurs.
The three-year Innovation Corps (I-Corps) grant will support the launch of a LEAN Accelerator program – an advanced eight-week course designed to increase student and faculty participation in entrepreneurial endeavors. Learn more at http://vcea.wsu.edu/icorps.
“This program is a great way to fulfill WSU’s land-grant mission of providing experiential learning opportunities that will lead to real economic impacts for the state, including increased commercialization of WSU research,” said Brian Kraft, director of business development for the College of Arts and Sciences.
The free program is not part of an academic course, and no prerequisite experience is required to participate. The first session will begin in the fall.
