The Kansas Technology Enterprise Corp. is extending its deadline for people to apply for spots in the next class of the KTEC Pipeline Entrepreneurial Fellowship program.

The deadline now is Sept. 10, to account for potential applicants who may learn about the program during the observation of the Kansas Day of Innovation, to be conducted Sept. 6 in Wichita.

Applications are available online at www.ktecpipeline.com.

While applications will be accepted through Sept. 10, officials say that early consideration will be given to candidates who apply by Aug. 10.

Each pipeline innovator receives a stipend of $36,000 for the year, to assist in advancing ventures, subsidizing time spent away at modules and pursuing new projects and research.
