Upcoming Events
From Invention to Start-Up focuses on the entrepreneurial process—how a start-up team, with an invention or innovation, can commercialize that technology and access
the capital, talent, and resources necessary to create a successful high-tech company. The 8-week series is intended for the UW faculty community to increase
awareness of the issues unique to the start-up process (in particular, the high-tech start-up) and to improve the odds of commercial success.
Entrepreneurs have a determination to succeed, tremendous initiative and energy, perseverance in the face of challenge, a capacity for observation,
confidence, an understanding of the value of money, and an ability to thrive on ambiguity. Does this describe your personality?
If so, come hear more at a week of entrepreneurial events, speakers, and networking. Attend everything or select a la carte!
The University of Washington is launching a competition in which interdisciplinary student teams work collaboratively to develop solutions to a new
Environmental Innovation Challenge (EIC), a specific problem of environmental significance. For 2008-09, the challenge theme will be
water, and teams will have roughly six months to work through the idea formation, technological development, and the market analysis
and business planning. Stay tuned for more information!
