Tech Transfer Office Program

The Boulder Innovation Center maintains a collaborative relationship with the University of Colorado’s Technology Transfer Office and the Colorado School of Mines Technology Transfer Office. As a commercialization partner, the Boulder Innovation Center works to enhance and promote the value of research and development that continually occurs at the University of Colorado and the Colorado School of Mines. Through its extensive network of advisors, the Boulder Innovation Center links faculty research to Advisors with expertise in science and technology business development.

If you are interested in becoming involved with university technology commercialization projects, please visit the Advisor section of our website.
