Purdue University exceeded its own record-breaking startup and commercialization activities for the third consecutive year.
For fiscal year 2016, Purdue posted technology transfer increases across all categories highlighted by 27 startups originating from Purdue-licensed intellectual property. Purdue had 24 startups in fiscal year 2014 and 25 startups in fiscal year 2015. The university also had 12 startups based on "know-how" innovations for this fiscal year.
“These steady and deliberate increases represent a purposeful desire of our outstanding faculty, staff and students to move innovations to the public through a strong entrepreneurial system to support these endeavors,” says Dan Hasler, president of the Purdue Research Foundation.
