i2I is open to all faculty, entrepreneurs, innovators, researchers, research administrators, technology transfer professionals and students to explore critical topics surrounding academic innovation and the challenges of transitioning research to the marketplace.
The symposium will foster a culture of use-inspired R&D and entrepreneurship with speakers, chats with EXCEED awardees, and staff will dive into how to best support, scale and sustain research that can have societal and industry impact with support from EXCEED, Tech Transfer and more at Binghamton University.
i2I includes an inventor recognition ceremony of faculty inventors for receiving 2025 patents. Early registration is encouraged. The program will conclude at 4 p.m. and go directly into a reception for the Art of Science exhibition as part of Research Days at Binghamton University.
