Innovation Gateway hosts weekly office hours to better serve the UGA community and answer questions from faculty, students and staff relating to research commercialization and innovation at UGA. All members of the UGA community are invited to attend these informal Q&A sessions to learn more about intellectual property, Material Transfer Agreements (“MTA”), Non-Disclosure Agreements (“NDA”), technology commercialization, invention disclosures, startup formation, and other services we provide at UGA. Please contact Gennaro Gama at gjg@uga.edu to request the Zoom meeting link. For other inquiries, please visit our staff directory or contact us at 706-542-1404 or email gateway@uga.edu.
