Governance
The Kansas Bioscience Authority board of directors is responsible for setting the authority’s investment strategy and for reviewing and approving all cash investments in bioscience research, commercialization, expansion, and attraction. Through the KBA’s president and CEO, the board also oversees the authority’s operations.
In governing the KBA, the board of directors has adopted bylaws, an investment process, a conflict of interest policy, and committee charters in line with the Kansas Economic Growth Act of 2004. The content of those documents is available online by clicking on the appropriate bullet points on the left side of this page.
“KBA support has given many promising ventures an opportunity to advance their work. The fact that they’ve been doing that even in the current difficult economic climate puts the state in a strong position to take advantage of more opportunities as the economy recovers. That’s a good investment in the future.”
