Over two and half years ago I took a leap into an exciting new initiative at Penn: the launch and implementation of the Penn Center for Innovation (PCI).

PCI’s launch was the result of a two-year planning effort among university leaders to determine the best strategies for expanding Penn’s commercialization potential and the right infrastructure to support these activities. University technology commercialization, also sometimes known as technology transfer, involves the creation of business relationships between the university and the commercial sector for the purpose of creating products, goods and services based on the active development of discoveries created at the university.
