The distinction recognizes faculty who have demonstrated success in translating research into a commercial setting
The University System of Georgia Board of Regents approved two University of Georgia professors as Regents’ Entrepreneurs at its Dec. 1 meeting. Professors Biao He and Steven Stice, are the first two UGA selections for a designation that was adopted by the board in February 2022.
The Regents’ Entrepreneur distinction recognizes faculty who have demonstrated success in translating research into a commercial setting. It lasts for an initial period of three years that can then be extended by the board and provides a one-time, $10,000 cash award.
