UW-Madison third in nation in tech-transfer value

A report from the Association of University Technology Managers http://www.autm.net/index.cfm has ranked UW-Madison and the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation third in the country in value of the inventions created by faculty members for 2004, behind only the University of California System, counted as a single entity in second place, and New York University.

"There are 300 different universities that have technology transfer offices, and to be among the top three is a real honor for Wisconsin," said Andrew Cohn, public relations manager for WARF. "We are competing with Harvard, with Stanford, with all of these other great universities, and holding our own—in fact, doing better than holding our own."
