ABOUT US

The NKU Office for Economic Initiatives has established the Williamstown Area Innovation Center for the rural region of Northern Kentucky. This Innovation Center is one of 15 regional IC offices connected to a network of 6 regional ICC offices throughout the state of Kentucky. ICC/ICs are public/private partnerships that will assist the state’s entrepreneurs to commercialize technologies that demonstrate significant market potential. The IC program acts as a funnel for ideas, taking them from a rough stage and applying a commercialization standard to shape them into viable business prospects for investors.
