RedTire (KU School of Business)

The RedTire program, by the KU Entrepreneurship Works for Kansas initiative, is designed to address the closing of viable businesses due to the lack of a successor or exit strategy. RedTire acts as a matchmaker between rural business owners looking to exit and either highly qualified graduates who have the expertise and ambition to run those businesses or experienced business managers looking to buy and run their own business.
