The Office of Innovation + Partnerships

The Office of Innovation + Partnerships (I+P) is the focal point at McGill University for the mobilization of research from the laboratory into the real world. Mobilization can take many forms: commercialization, licensing, patenting, and partnering with industry, among others.

Our team is composed of subject-area specialists – many of whom are scientists themselves – who work with researchers to identify potential use cases for their discoveries, and who cultivate relationships with industry to facilitate collaborations capable of producing true added value for both partners.
