National Science Foundation grant will fund MSU I-Corps Site

STARKVILLE, Miss.—The number of startup businesses formed around technology developed within Mississippi State University is set to increase thanks to a $495,300 National Science Foundation Grant.

The grant from the NSF will launch a new I-Corps Site at MSU, helping the university broaden the economic reach of its research and innovation. The College of Business’ Center for Entrepreneurship and Outreach, also called the “CEO,” will lead the I-Corps site, providing infrastructure, advice, resources, networking opportunities, training and modest funding to enable groups to transition their work into the marketplace or into becoming I-Corps Team applications.
