i2E
Also called: Innovation to Enterprise, i2E Inc, I 2 E, i two e, eye two e, Oklahoma Technology Commercialization Center
An Oklahoma nonprofit, with offices in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, that helps founders turn early ideas into scalable companies. It offers free advising, a bootcamp and student pitch competitions, and it serves only companies based mostly in Oklahoma. It says it receives state support from OCAST. It does not invest directly. Its former investment arm became Plains Ventures in 2019. Discussed in the Techlahoma Slack as one of Oklahoma's business and community resources.
For example: A founder with a medical device idea meets an i2E advisor, who helps plan the company and later makes introductions to investors.
