Continuing the conversation we started last year, this second installment of our workshop series will focus on how to scale up innovation. It will look at how individuals, companies, firms, and the ecosystem itself can turn the success of a single popular idea or product into a larger environment cultivating sustained innovation. But how does this happen? How do we harness the true diversity of our communities to scale up innovation? How do we build sufficient capacity for these ecosystems? In short, how do we unleash the true innovation potential of our society?

Organizers

The Centre for Intellectual Property Policy (CIPP) was founded as part of 香蕉视频鈥檚 Faculty of Law in 2003. Its goal is to increase Montreal鈥檚 attractiveness and competitiveness by facilitating intellectual property research, technology transfer, commercialization and knowledge mobilization. The CIPP carries out interdisciplinary research to understand the role of intellectual property policies and rules in contributing to creativity and innovation. CIPP researchers broadly examine innovation systems.

The Office of Innovation is a new unit focused on building McGill鈥檚 innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem through supporting services and strategic partnerships within Canada and abroad. The team includes technology transfer managers and patent and licensing specialists, innovation associates, and entrepreneurial leaders focused on partnerships and program development for students and researchers.
