The University of Vermont is pleased to host the Fifth Invention to Venture Conference on Friday, April 9, 2010. I2V is a leading event that pulls together academic researchers, students, entrepreneurs and business leaders from across Vermont and from several Colleges and Universities.  

The half day event has two great speakers and a few workshops focused on inspiring entrepreneurship, job creation, and economic growth.  We are honored to announce that Briar Alpert, CEO, BioTek Instruments and venture capitalist Peter Feinstein, General Partner, BioVentures have agreed to speak this year.  There are also two roundtable discussions planned on Lessons Learned and Finding the Money.

As with all I2V events, our goal is to engage a wide range of participants from the university community as well as members of the surrounding business community. Please encourage your post-doctoral, graduate, and undergraduate students to attend. Presentations will focus on venture capital, marketing, intellectual property, business plans, and related topics. Guest speakers are experts drawn from the region.

The event will provide a fast-paced, half-day of practical information and networking that can help take your ideas to commercialization. I2V is a co-production of the Technology Commercialization Office at the University of Vermont, the Vermont Center for Emerging Technologies, and with the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA).
