The Ohio University Foundation established the Konneker Medal for Commercialization and Entrepreneurship to recognize current and former faculty members or students who have demonstrated excellence in innovation, invention, commercialization, and entrepreneurship.

The Center for Entrepreneurship would like to invite all students and staff to participate in a Fireside Chat with the newest Konneker Medal recipient, Jake Sigal. CEO of Detroit’s Tome, Inc., he made a career out of building companies that have redefined the way software applications work with hardware products. Sigal earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in industrial and systems engineering from the Russ College of Engineering and Technology. This event will be held at the Konneker Alumni Center on Wednesday, February 8th from 2 – 3pm. We look forward to seeing you there!
