The University of Louisville hired three “entrepreneurs-in-residence” (EIRs) to help their research-backed inventions make it to market quicker.
The three EIRs are: Josh Nickols, CEO of Enhale Medical, Jeff Cummins, senior finance executive and Charley Miller, co-founder and head manager of TouchCast. Each EIR will serve a six-month term, beginning in April.
Nickols said in the release that he is excited to work with U of L and to drive the innovations towards market.
According to U of L’s release, the EIRs will be responsible for guidance on product development, business planning and other activities to accelerate the commercialization of university inventions.
