The AccelerateKY Connect. Inform. Inspire. Community Portal, has been established for the participants of the October 15th event and for those interested in participating with AccelerateKY in assisting entrepreneurs and innovators from across the Commonwealth of Kentucky.  

WORK HAS CHANGED.

WORK IS NO LONGER A PLACE YOU GO — WORK IS A STATE OF MIND.

Hopewell Louisville offers a new way to work. With flexible workspaces and exceptional service, we’re redesigning the concept of work experience one work day at a time.

The Morehead Space Science Center Konexon's Community Portal provides information and resources for entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs.  You will be able to find the information and resources you need to commercialize technologies here.  

At the heart of MSU's Department of Physics, Earth Science and Space Systems Engineering is the Ronald G. Eaglin Space Science Center (SSC). The facility houses state-of-the-art equipment and laboratories that will give you valuable hands-on learning experiences. The Space Science Center is home to MSU's Program of Distinction, the Bachelor of Science in Space Systems Engineering.

MSU's Space Science Center was recently named the best aerospace research and development center in Kentucky by Southern Business and Development magazine, beating out research and development programs at Eastern Kentucky University, the University of Kentucky and the University of Louisville.

The SSC has become an important center for research in nanosatellite technologies. CubeSats are "loaf of bread" or smaller-sized nanosatellites that have become the defacto world-wide standard for small satellite technologies. CubeSats are 10 x 10 x 10 cm (or by 20 or 30 cm in length) satellites that weigh under 1 kg per unit. The recent evolution of micro/nanotechnologies and microelectronics has facilitated the development of these inexpensive, highly capable small satellites that are now being flown by NASA, the U.S. Department of Defense, aerospace companies and universities around the globe. CubeSats, including those developed at the SSC, are used for a wide variety of applications ranging from tactical defense to scientific research (including astrophysics research and Earth phenomena and resource monitoring) to practical applications ranging from communications to relaying data from ground sensors. CubeSats are considered "disruptive technology" by the world-wide aerospace industry because they can provide some of the same services as conventional satellites at a fraction of the cost and with short development times - and MSU is at the forefront of this emerging technology.

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.

The University of Louisville Konexon's Community Portal is here to provide information and resources for entrepreneurs, and those who think they may want to be entrepreneurs, to assist in the commercialization of meaningful technologies.  

THIS PORTAL IS NOT OFFICIALLY SANCTIONED OR MAINTAINED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE.  IT IS PROVIDED AS A THIRD PARTY RESOURCE TO HELP IDENTIFY AND ACCESS RESOURCES THAT COULD HELP STUDENTS, FACULTY, OR OUTSIDE ENTREPRENEURS.  

The Bowling Green Konexon's Community Portal is here to help entrepreneurs in Bowling Green and the surrounding area, find the resources and information they need to assist them in growing their businesses.
