2020 UCI Innovator Awards

Recognize UCI researchers working to promote commercialization and support industry growth

UCI Beall Applied Innovation, with generous support of Don and Ken Beall, created awards to recognize UCI researchers working actively to promote commercialization of university intellectual property, which supports industry growth and moves inventions from the lab to market to benefit humankind.

This year’s reception is held virtually and hosted by Hal S. Stern, Interim Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor and Richard Sudek, Chief Innovation Officer at UCI and Executive Director at Beall Applied Innovation.

Join on Tuesday, October 27 at 1:00 p.m. PT to hear who amongst the many talented nominees will take home awards for Emerging Innovation/Early Career Innovator of the Year, Entrepreneurial Leader of the Year and Innovator of the Year.
