A foundation has donated $5 million over five years to UW-Madison with the aim of spurring entrepreneurship across the campus and boosting commercialization of research around the state, the UW announced.
The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation named the UW one of its “Kauffman Campuses.” The Kansas City-based foundation launched the initiative in 2004 to “transform the way colleges and universities prepare students for success in the American economy.”
