Showcasing Innovation:
Pathways for Public Awareness
Pitch Decks and Innovation Council
Pitch Decks and Industry Analyses – drafted by TT&C for Inventor
Innovation Council Reviews – New Disclosures and Patented Inventions
The Innovation Council is tasked with assessing each invention for its benefits to the community, as well as its commercial and market viability. Utilizing Pitch Decks for New Disclosures as a basis for evaluation, the Council determines whether an invention demonstrates enough potential to justify moving forward with a patent application. Depending on the invention’s current patent status at the time of review, this may involve filing either a Provisional or a Nonprovisional patent application.
Following each presentation of a Patented Invention, the Innovation Council will either assist in identifying potential commercial partners or recommend initiating a startup venture. Based on the Council’s evaluation, TT&C will implement specific actions aligned with these recommendations. These actions may include connecting researchers with companies interested in licensing new technologies. Alternatively, if pursuing a startup is deemed appropriate, TT&C will facilitate this process by providing access to accelerators, engaging angel investors, and supporting proof-of-concept programs.
