A new initiative from UW-Madison and the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF), administered by UWM’s Discovery to Product (D2P) program, is a powerhouse network and online resource involving more than a dozen campus organizations. The Innovate Network and its website — simply branded “Innovate” — are working in tandem to build a campus innovation culture while strengthening the school’s ties to the region’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. The online resource compiles education, funding, news, and events for faculty, staff, and student innovators. And, while the initiative only launched in April 2019, results are already being realized.
There are 18 groups that are part of this one-stop-shop website, making it easier for people to connect with any aspect of the innovation ecosystem in one place. Members actively support innovation, tech transfer, and campus entrepreneurship in a full array of sectors, from biomanufacturing to computer and data science, health and medicine, clean tech, food science, and many others.
