Express your interest in Innovation 360 here.
The Innovation 360 workshop features a series of eight (8) modules designed to expose UCSB researchers to the practical characteristics innovations require to be successfully deployed outside of academia, whether through commercialization or "open access" adoption models.
Workshop topics include:
- How industry views academic innovations
- Developing a common language: communicating technical innovations to non-technical stakeholders
- Identifying customer/adopter interest
- Manufacturability, scalability, and soup-to-nuts sustainability
- Assessing the market/user base
- Intellectual property protection to facilitate development and adoption
Each participant will be asked to identify a specific innovation of interest to them. After each workshop module, participants will apply the principles learned to their chosen innovation as a case-study in a flipped classroom format.
