A Columbus venture development group nurturing several Ohio State University spinoffs has raised a $10 million fund called Startup Nursery to commercialize technology from top research institutions.
Ikove Venture Partners LLC plans to build and incubate 10 to 15 early-stage technology companies over the next three years, freeing inventions from university labs and getting them to market.
