In this episode of DevelopLex, we sit down with Dr. Eli Capilouto, the 12th President of the University of Kentucky, to explore how UK’s campus transformation is more than bricks and mortar — it's a purpose-driven mission to advance Kentucky’s future. Since taking office in 2011, Dr. Capilouto has overseen more than $7 billion in campus development, growing UK’s total operations to $8.4 billion and turning the university into a catalyst for statewide economic, academic, and health transformation.

We dig into the decision-making behind UK’s infrastructure investments, the role of strategic partnerships, and innovative programs like UK Invest that reflect the university’s commitment to preparing students for lives of meaning and impact.
