Services available for entrepreneurial technology commercialization The Center for Innovation, through a grant from the Dakota Foundation, is able to assist faculty and staff at the University of North Dakota in the entrepreneurial commercialization of their research. Center for Innovation interns are employed to conduct marketability studies, develop business plans, create financial models, apply for grant assistance, and generally assist in the development of a business based off of University developed technology. The Center for Innovation provides all of the necessary administrative and technical support (payroll, policies, NDA agreements, etc.) and assists with any work that requires additional expertise above the capabilities of the intern. The time required by the inventor is minimal and only at the beginning phases of the project when information about the invention or technology is needed. Please contact Jordan@innovators.net if you feel a technology you are working on could benefit from this program or for more information. -- Jordan T.
