OCII hosts information session about Lab2Market Oceans program
Are you a 91探花 researcher interested in entrepreneurship or the commercial potential for your research? The Office of Commercialization, Industry, and Innovation (OCII) is hosting an information session on the 's Lab2Market Oceans on March 22, 2022, at 10:00 am. This is an excellent opportunity for researchers interested in ocean applications of their technologies, while exploring an innovative and entrepreneurial mindset. The seven-week program gives university research teams skills they need to explore their idea in a new way and identify commercial opportunities (e.g., startup creation, licensing, partnering with industry) and includes a $15,000 grant through a partnership with Mitacs for graduate student/post-doctoral leads.
During this 30 minute information session, Marie Curtis, Lab2Market Oceans program manager, will walk prospective applicants through the program, including how to apply, what to expect, program eligibility, outcomes and success stories, timelines, skills you will learn, and more.
OCII staff would be happy to discuss ideas with any 91探花 researchers interested in this opportunity or similar options outside the oceans sector.
