The Chancellor’s Innovation Fund, launched in 2023, offers seed funding to support faculty and their research teams in developing and commercializing new technologies. Each year, five winners are carefully selected to receive a one-time award of $50,000 to invest towards the refinement and prototyping of their lab-based technologies. The fund prioritizes innovation that addresses real-world challenges with the goals of supporting faculty and strengthening East Tennessee’s entrepreneurial network.
