There now is a streamlined way for any faculty, students or staff to submit their new ideas and discoveries.
UNeMed, the technology transfer and commercialization office for UNMC and the University of Nebraska at Omaha, is offering a digital form that inventors can use to submit their innovations, discoveries and ideas.
The New Invention Notification form is embedded on UNeMed’s website at this link.
All inventions are accepted under strict confidentiality and will be reviewed by the UNeMed team to determine the potential intellectual property and commercial potential of the invention.
Submitting a New Invention Notification is the first of several steps toward commercializing and innovation. UNeMed has provided a comprehensive inventors handbook that explains the process, potential outcomes and the obligations of everyone involved.
Physical copies of the handbook also are available. Contact UNeMed to request a free copy.
The traditional Microsoft Word version of the New Invention Notification will remain available and acceptable for any who wish to use it and send via email. That form can be downloaded at this New Invention Notification link.
