The IP @ND will encourage the initiation and growth of world -class research activity <br />on the campus of the University of Notre Dame, and in collaboration with other <br />universities and colleges. The 1P @ND will act as abase for the technology platform <br />development in addressing basic human needs, such as water, nutrition, clean air, <br />health, shelter, education, communications, transportation, energy and the <br />environment. In doing so, the IP @ND will foster and facilitate the accelerated <br />exploration and development of the commercial applications of these technology <br />platforms through technology transfer, joint ventures, start -ups, and other avenues <br />with large and small innovation -based businesses located in Michiana, across the <br />U.S., and around the world. <br />Succinctly stated, the mission of the Innovation Park at Notre Dame is, therefore, to <br />transform research into marketable enterprises. The IP @ND will accomplish this <br />mission by providing convenient access to necessary space, administrative services <br />and Internet connectivity in combination with the active engagement of expert technical <br />support, professional business advice and introduction to private risk capital. Key <br />outcomes will include the translation of intellectual property into viable products and <br />services, as well as enhanced research /technology development opportunities and <br />uniquely valuable educational experiences for faculty and students. At the same time, <br />the IP @ND will not actively provide the means to advance basic research off campus, <br />or to seek to become a long -term landlord for start-up or other commercial ventures on <br />this site. Instead, the IP @ND will encourage the continuous development of its core <br />research /technology platforms and facilitate an accelerated exploration of potential <br />commercial applications, leading to the eventual transplantation of these enterprises <br />into Michiana for market scale -up. <br />6.
