As a strong proponent of the South Carolina innovation ecosystem, SCRA’s SC Academic Innovations Program supports the translation of commercially relevant technology emanating from our state’s Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs). The Lab to Market Track seeks to help Clemson University, University of South Carolina, and Medical University of South Carolina to accelerate the path to market of university-owned technology to generate tangible solutions having the potential to create lasting economic and societal benefits.
Applicants should pursue activities and partnerships that will create a sustainable framework for and accelerate the pace of translational/use-inspired research, technology development, and commercialization. These primary goals should be supplemented with workforce development initiatives that support technology-based economic development.
