L2M Endowed Chair Established in Hankamer School of Business

In November, Baylor announced an anonymous alumni gift of $1.5 Million to establish a newly endowed faculty position for Lab 2 Market (L2M) in Honor of Terry S. Maness, D.B.A. on his upcoming retirement. The Terry S. Maness Endowed Chair in Lab-to-Market Entrepreneurship also qualifies for the Baylor Academic Challenge program, a donor-supported dollar-for-dollar match for faculty positions that advance the priorities of Illuminate. The Maness Endowed Chair will assist L2M with leadership, strategic planning, and coordination of collaborations between faculty and industry stakeholders to produce viable and efficient strategies for the commercialization of research.
