About Discovery to Impact
Discovery to Impact is the connection between campus innovators and industry. We cultivate ideas, uncover pathways to market, and foster commercial collaborations that translate academic research into services, treatments, and products that benefit society.
For decades, research commercialization has been central to our drive to change the world.
While there are more than 130 programs on campus devoted to championing entrepreneurship and intellectual property creation, at the center of this ecosystem is Discovery to Impact. Our team oversees the university’s technology transfer and corporate-sponsored research functions and two startup incubators. We build and nurture relationships with campus creators and inventors as well as corporations, investors and entrepreneurs to get research out of the labs and studios and into the world where it can be put to the greatest use.
Over time, you’ll see this website grow. Have a look around and come back regularly to learn about new programs and resources as they’re added. In the meantime, please contact us and let us know how we can help.
