What does your organization do? The Riata Center is made of a dedicated staff of entrepreneurship professionals who foster the spirit of entrepreneurship through innovative outreach programs. The team is dedicated to high impact entrepreneurial outreach on the campus, in the region, around the State of Oklahoma, across the US, and abroad. The Center is intimately engaged with the entrepreneurial community and strongly committed to creating unique experiential learning opportunities for students and to provide entrepreneurial education to others as means to economic development.
Why did you decide to partner with 36°N? As a land-grant university, Oklahoma State University promotes learning, advances knowledge, enriches lives, and stimulates economic development through teaching, research, extension, outreach, and creative activities. The Riata Center, in following university mission, chose to partner with 36°N to increase our ability to educate and assist members of Tulsa’s growing entrepreneurial community and in turn link our students to additional resources.
