Sridhar Condoor, Ph.D., is the Chair of the Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering department at Saint Louis University's Parks College of Engineering, Aviation and Technology. He is a KEEN fellow, a Coleman Fellow, the editor of the Journal of Engineering Entrepreneurship.

Condoor is spearheading Technology Entrepreneurship education at Saint Louis University via Weekly Innovation Challenges, iScholars program, Idea to Product (I2P), and funded research. He is the Principal Investigator for the Kern Entrepreneurship Education Network (KEEN) Program Development Grants to foster the spirit of innovation in engineering students.

Condoor is the inventor VayuWind, a hubless wind turbine for urban environments. VayuWind is a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) which deploys airfoils parallel to the rotational axis. It improves on the traditional VAWT by using a ring frame leaving the central portion open for other uses. This feature enables VayuWind to extract wind power using existing structures such as utility poles, commercial buildings and skywalks with minimal noise pollution. VayuWind adds space saving and aethetics to the benefits of the traditional VAWT (changing wind directions and bird-friendly nature) making it an ideal turbine for urban environment.
