NUtech Ventures’ mission is to commercialize technologies generated from the research and creative activities of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Namely, NUtech Ventures seeks to facilitate the transfer of innovations from the “lab to the marketplace” for the benefit of society. This is an exciting objective as our institution expends nearly $300 million each year on research, which inevitably leads to cutting edge technologies, new products, and programs. The innovations of university researchers impact the region, nation, and internationally by promoting economic development and improving quality of life. Whether you’re interested in seeing your innovations licensed, in starting a company, or securing developmental funding for your cutting-edge research, our team can help you connect with potential partners, entrepreneurs, and resources. We trust you will find this handbook to be a useful reference guide as you conduct your innovative work. I also would invite you to engage our team early and often in your research to benefit from the commercialization and technology development support we can provide. Brad Roth, Executive Director, NUtech Ventures
