i2E was created in 1997 out of a response to the Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology's (OCAST) initiative to establish a center to support technology commercialization.

A year later, a program was formed to assist researchers, inventors, entrepreneurs and companies to turn advanced technologies and high-tech start-up companies into exceptional business opportunities for Oklahoma.  This program is the Oklahoma Technology Commercialization Center (OTCC).
This initiative was taken even further when the OCAST Technology Business Finance Program (TBFP) was created to meet the capital needs of early technology-based enterprises.

The Enterprise Oklahoma Venture Fund (EOVF) was established in 2002 as a "non-traditional" venture capital fund that operates under state and operational parameters that would not normally apply to a traditional venture fund. This fund was formed to make investments in Oklahoma companies.

That same year, i2E partnered with the Oklahoma Investment Forum (OIF) to further strengthen the economic development resources that assist promising new entrepreneurial companies to prosper in Oklahoma.
The success of all these programs, managed by i2E, provide Oklahoma entrepreneurs with the knowledge, skills and access to capital for turning innovations into enterprises………i2E.
