Innovation Competition
We invite you to participate in a new Innovation Competition pilot organized by the Innovation and Entrepreneurship office. The program aims to train entrepreneurial engineering undergraduate students by pairing them with experienced entrepreneurs, executives and commercialization professionals to explore the commercialization potential of your Cornell IP.
Pilot Overview
The pilot is designed to equip entrepreneurial student teams with the skills to assess the optimal technology commercialization pathway, whether through corporate licensing or the launch of a venture-funded startup. Using faculty-submitted and disclosed technologies, the student teams will develop commercialization plans with guidance from industry experts and Entrepreneurs-in-Residence. The students will gain valuable hands-on experience while advancing strategies for the optimal commercialization of your innovative idea.
