At OSU, there is a program called Innovation Way, which consists of four businesses meant for engaging faculty and students alike to reach their full potential. One of these programs specifically tailored for faculty technology development is Cowboy Technologies, a catalyst for innovation, which aims to prepare start-ups and products for the market as well as connect professors with angel investors. However, developing these start-ups takes years or longer due to the lack of funding and staff at Cowboy Technology- making it a risk to some faculty to invest their time and business. Above Cowboy Technologies is the Center for Innovation and Economic Development as well as Innovation2Enterprise, who deal with the legality of production including government regulations and patent laws. However, OSU faculty are unaware of these programs as they have just recently opened for business. Moreover, staff is hesitant to get involved, as they don’t want to risk their products in a new, risky program. OSU needs to continue to promote the integration of faculty into an environment that promotes innovation and local economic development.&nbsp;<p style="text-align: justify"></p><p style="text-align: justify"></p><p style="text-align: justify"></p><p style="text-align: justify"></p><p style="text-align: justify"></p>= <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold"></span>University Technology Transfer Function = Oklahoma State University offers a wide range of technology transfer.
