IU Vice President for Engagement Bill Stephan said patented university intellectual property can drive statewide and national economic development.

“These patented technologies can be turned into successful products and processes when organizations like IURTC license them to already-established companies or entrepreneurs who are launching a startup,” he said. “They can form the foundation of small, high-tech businesses that hire talented individuals who give back to their communities, regions and states.”
