Throughout the current fiscal year, CTTC has focused on continuing its efforts to improve the way we serve the Vanderbilt community. We have identified more than a dozen key initiatives designed to create a significant and lasting impact on commercialization efforts at Vanderbilt. These include nontraditional marketing efforts for a variety of technologies, efforts to create transparency and opportunities for engagement in the commercialization process, and the development of an automated system for processing and managing Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs).
