Oklahoma State University

Northeast Oklahoma Business Development Hub centers on spurring the development of biotech, aerospace and autonomous systems, and energy startup companies within a six-county region of northeastern Oklahoma. The proposed program will establish a comprehensive evaluation system for gauging the eligibility of startup companies for external funding and facilitate effective collaboration between these qualifying small businesses and subcontracting opportunities with Oklahoma State University’s research expertise and focus. Business incubators, county business development agencies, and tribal governments within the region will help market the services provided by the funding specialist to client businesses.
