FounderHunt pitching event seeks to pair entrepreneurs with new technologies

摘要

A new University of Louisville (UofL) program, FounderHunt is in an annual event pitching IP from research universities to entrepreneurs to use for their next start-up. It's an effort to fill a gap that exists for many universities — particularly those outside of innovation hub cities — in the availability of strong leadership to take university startups forward to commercial success.
