Dear ADR/RLOs,
Partnerships & Innovation is excited to let you know that registration for The University of Manitoba’s first Lab2Market cohort is now live. Please circulate this information within your faculty.
The Lab2Market Program is a 16 week program to help researchers (primarily graduate students and PDFs) validate their ideas with the purpose of finding business/commercial value. The program is based on similar programs that have found success in other parts of the world, but with a Canadian twist. L2M Winnipeg follows three successful L2M implementations at L2M Toronto (Ryerson University), L2M Halifax (Dalhousie University) and L2M Oceans (Memorial University).
