Faculty Workshops & Seminars

Join CU Boulder’s Industry Research Partnerships team for a series of workshops and seminars designed to give faculty the tools to thrive in research collaborations with industry.

These interactive conversations will walk you through the full journey of partnership development—from identifying how your research can address industry challenges to finding the right company fit, navigating engagement and contracting. You’ll also gain practical insights into managing intellectual property, expanding relationships and sustaining long-term collaborations. Think of it as a training ground to strengthen your “partnership muscle” and position your research for maximum impact beyond campus.
