UC Entrepreneurship Academy

“Where Science + Engineering Meet Business + Innovation”

This three day UC Entrepreneurship Academy at the Child Family Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship is the premiere academic program for commercializing science and engineering innovations. It is a springboard for moving research out of the lab and into the world. The academy is taught by venture capitalists, entrepreneurs, university faculty, industry executives and angel investors who serve as mentors and guest speakers, providing participants with the knowledge and networks needed to take the next steps toward moving research out of the lab and into the world.

UC Davis Innovation Access

UC Davis InnovationAccess through the UC Davis Office of Research is a catalyst for the creation of partnerships that advance, for public benefit, the dissemination, utilization, and commercialization of discoveries made in research at UC Davis.  We work in close collaboration with UC Davis researchers to identify and protect discoveries that have value for commercialization, or may be the foundation for further research and development partnerships.  We enable partnerships that facilitate the development of UC Davis discoveries through new businesses created by entrepreneurs or through existing businesses. Our activities benefit the public by advancing research at UC Davis, commercializing novel products, and contributing to regional economic development.
