How UTD Stimulates Momentum to Create a Hotbed of New Businesses through
Research & Tech Transfer
Program
The focus of the program is to offer technology businesses assets and
resources to capitalize on UTD research, experts and other opportunities.
Technology transfer is a well-known idea, but this program will focus on the
"nuts and bolts" of how business owners and entrepreneurs can actually
leverage the resources at UTD to build their technology-based businesses. In
addition to presentation of an informative program, UTD's leading experts will
be presented so informal networking can begin to spur the momentum of technology
transfer to help businesses grow. A large software company and a large
technology company will be presented as case studies of how UTD resources were
used to help a new company succeed. The audience will be invited to participate
in the interchange at the end of the formal presentation.
