NKU Research Foundation

Northern Kentucky University Research Foundation

NKURF was established in 2004 as a 501 ©C Corporation designated to receive, invest and expend funds to promote and implement scientific and educational activities and to receive and hold conservation easements in support of CER. NKURF was created by the university to expand the development, implementation and coordination of extramurally-sponsored programs. Since 2015, NKURF has focused on providing support and guidance to faculty and students regarding the protection, development, and commercialization of intellectual property. The NKURF is managed through GERO with a board of directors representing internal NKU and external community members.
