Bob Orr Entrepreneurial Fellowship
Founded in 2001, Orr Fellowship is named for former Indiana Governor, Bob Orr, who took his role as a mentor, teacher, and promoter of high-potential talent very seriously. Orr was unintimidated by the greatness of others and pushed his teams and colleagues to never stop learning and growing.
These admired traits along with his foresight to set the foundation for the future flourishing of Indiana talent is what inspired the founders of Orr Fellowship to have Orr as our namesake.
