Morgan Center for Entrepreneurship • Center for Advanced Manufacturing • Center for the Environment • Cyber Center • Discovery Learning Center • e-Enterprise Center • Energy Center • Oncological Sciences Center • Regenstrief Center for Healthcare Engineering • Lilly Endowment support • Institutional support • Broad mission • Synergism among centers

  6. Discovery Park Infrastructure • Administrative • Business team – SPS & Business Admin. • Project coordination • Web site integration • Special events • Technical • Research Cores – partnership with academic units • Equipment and facilities

  7. Project Based Centers  Interdisciplinary in nature  Affiliated with a core center  Sponsored programs  Often opportunistic

  8. New Initiatives • Center for Analytical Instrumentation Development (CAID) • Cytometry for Life (C4L) • Center for Assistive Technologies • DHS University Center of Excellence in Command, Control and Interoperability • Purdue Institute of Defense Innovation • Energy Frontier Research Centers

  9. Purdue Research Park Industry Startup Company Licensing Joint Venture Cooperative EducationCampus wide Value Proposition An Engine for Indiana’s Economy To Practice or Commercialization Project Ideas Educational or Training Concepts Nurturing Seeding Executing Discovery Park & University Infrastructure Discovery Park is designed to rapidly integrate Purdue with outside partners.

  10. Alfred E. Mann Institute (AMI)at Purdue • Alfred E. Mann is a successful entrepreneur in the medical device field. • Created $1B+ non-profit Alfred E. Mann Foundation for Biomedical Engineering (AEMFBE) • Mission is to expedite development of biomedical technologies at partner universities • Endowing $100M+ non-profit Alfred E. Mann Institutes at partner universities (USC, Technion) • Purdue is third partner site.

  11. AMI Organizational Model • Operates under umbrella agreement with Purdue Research Foundation (PRF) to expand our technology commercialization capacity • Non-profit institute located in Purdue’s Discovery Park (DP) • Governed by Board comprised of half Purdue and half AEMFBE selected members • Uses ~$5M endowment income for all operational costs (e.g., rent, staff, resources)

  12. AMI Organizational Model(cont.) • Invests in and rapidly develops Purdue biomedical technologies • Licenses developed technologies to companies (startup through established) • Preference given to Indiana companies in order to fuel the local and regional economy • Income is shared among inventors, PRF, AMI, AEMFBE

  13. AMI Chief Advantages • AMI will complete analysis on: • freedom to operate • barriers to market entry • time and cost to market • competitive technologies and market landscape • reimbursement strategies • regulatory approval processes • potential commercial partners • Immediate resources will be brought to bear on projects developed by AMI

  14. AMI Chief Advantages(cont.) • Thus, technology will be subsequently licensed to a company when: • technical risk is significantly reduced: • Working prototype(s) • Commercial scale demonstration • Preclinical and/or clinical studies completed • FDA approvals in process or granted • market application is well-defined • Result is a higher market value of the technology
