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.

  • Neil Kaden (welcome and intros), MIT Forum Chairman and Principal, circkeNK
