Through its Technology Commercialization and Licensing group, the Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation protects and manages inventions generated through research at the University, the University of Chicago Medical Center, the Marine Biological Laboratory, or the Toyota Technological Institute. For such inventions, completing an invention disclosure form is the first step to engaging with us in the commercialization process.
f you are not a researcher, postdoctoral fellow, resident, student or staff member in one of these organizations, please contact us before submitting an invention disclosure to determine if it is appropriate for you to do so.
