UNeMed Corporation has scheduled Innovation Week for Oct. 20-23.<\/p>\n

Innovation Week is an annual event that celebrates innovation and discovery at UNMC. <\/p>\n

UNeMed, the technology transfer office for UNMC, is hosting the four-day series of events, which kicks off with an open house on Oct. 20. Innovation Week culminates with the Innovation Awards at 4 p.m. on Oct. 23 in the Durham Research Center Auditorium. Awards will be presented to UNMC researchers, faculty, staff and students who developed a new invention, secured a patent, or signed a licensing agreement for an invention.<\/p>\n

This year UNeMed also will present two special awards honoring the “2014 Emerging Inventor” and the “Most Promising New Invention.” There also will be a drawing where one person will win a free iPad.<\/p>\n

The Innovation Awards are open to anyone who wishes to attend, but they must first register<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Other planned events for Innovation Week include a scavenger hunt, a seminar about academic and industrial collaboration, and the “UNMC Technology Demo Day,” where researchers and startup companies based on UNMC inventions will deliver short presentations about their innovations. Demo Day is a free event but space is limited and guests are asked to reserve a seat here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Innovation Week’s kickoff event on Oct. 20 will feature free T-shirts, beverages and other items.<\/p>\n

The complete schedule of events is posted on the UNMC calendar, and more details are available on the UNeMed website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
