The Office of Innovation + Partnerships (I+P) is the focal point at º£½ÇÉçÇø for the mobilization of research from the laboratory into the real world. Mobilization can take many forms: commercialization, licensing, patenting, and partnering with industry, among others.

Our team is composed of subject-area specialists – many of whom are scientists themselves – who work with researchers to identify potential use cases for their discoveries, and who cultivate relationships with industry to facilitate collaborations capable of producing true added value for both partners. The unit is divided into three main pillars:ÌýTechnology Transfer,ÌýIndustry Partnerships, andÌýIndustry Liaison.
