Great Plains I-CORP program
The Innovation-Corps (I-Corps) program is a vital part of the National Science Foundation鈥檚
mission to create and support a national innovation network. This program offers training
to university researchers and community innovators who are interested in entrepreneurship
education and mentoring, with the ultimate goal of reducing the time it takes to transform
technologies from the laboratory to the market. I-Corps training provides hands-on,
practical instruction that enables scientists, engineers, and innovators to assess
the commercial potential of their technology, a critical initial step in successfully
converting them into products, processes, and services that have a positive impact
on society.
