BeingAI coming to WKU Innovation Campus From Crystal Staley/Brandon Mattingly Frankfort, KY - On July 27, 2023, Gov. Andy Beshear highlighted high-tech growth in the commonwealth as leaders at BeingAI Corporation, a cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) company, have announced they will locate the company's new U.S. headquarters at the Western Kentucky University (WKU) Innovation Campus in Bowling Green. The company will be investing nearly $3 million and creating 28 high-wage Kentucky jobs over three phases in the next three years. "The growth and momentum we are seeing throughout Kentucky's technology sector is no accident," said Gov. Beshear. "Creating an environment that allows for startups and tech companies to thrive is critical to the commonwealth's long-term success. I want to thank company leadership, Western Kentucky University and the city of Bowling Green for working together to make this project a reality and welcome BeingAI to the commonwealth. I look forward to their future success." Company leaders will locate the new headquarters in a leased facility at the WKU Innovation Campus, establishing BeingAI's first location in the United States. The project will create 28 quality jobs, consisting of a world-class team of creators, scientists and developers to bring together art, technology and pro-humanity principles to create artificially intelligent characters (called "AI beings"). The new headquarters will serve as the company's center for creative development and immersive experiences, including 3D character design and development as well as foster learning- and wellness-focused content, services and experiences in collaboration with content creators, service providers and AR/VR/immersive experience designers. "The next-generation digital experience will be centered around human-AI interaction, which requires sensibility and pragmatism in user experience design enabled by the latest A.I. and extended reality innovations," said BeingAI CEO Jeanne Lim. "Bowling Green offers so much of what I need to bring these elements together. I'm looking forward to forging strategic, long-term partnerships there to grow our business across the U.S. and globally." Founded in 2020, BeingAI helps bridge disciplines in arts, psychology, artificial intelligence and interactive storytelling to bring to the world delightful AI-enabled characters that deliver real value to people. These AI beings have rich personalities, engaging conversations and deliver real-world solutions - to entertain, educate, comfort, inspire and collaborate. The company was one of five global AI startup finalists in last year's SXSW Pitch competition, which is a featured showcase event highlighting some of the most innovative startup companies in the world. The WKU Innovation Campus is an applied research and intellectual hub that spurs innovative collaboration, promotes problem-solving and nurtures talent to elevate the economy and region. Through real-world applications and entrepreneurial support, the Innovation Campus engages and connects researchers, students and start-ups with corporations, industry leaders and local businesses to tackle challenges and foster a talent-first strategy to meet the needs of the region's growing industries.
