McCoy Russell remains actively engaged with supporting academic, research institutions, and university technology transfer offices and their important work. McCoy Russell attorney Justin Wagner attended the 2023 AUTM Western Region Meeting building and knowledge sharing within the technology transfer field.

Justin moderated a panel discussion on facilitating research collaboration through an innovative initiative called the research infrastructure commons (RIC). Justin also gained valuable insights through panels on strategic partnerships between national laboratories and academic institutions, as well as a session on emerging global IP trends from experts.

AUTM’s Region Meetings are great opportunities for technology transfer professionals to exchange relevant perspectives on navigating partnerships and advancing innovation. McCoy Russell recognizes that technology transfer offices play an integral role in translating academic research into commercially viable patent filings and resulting portfolios.

By participating in events such as the AUTM region meetings, the firm aims to deepen its understanding of the technology transfer process and continue adapting its intellectual property services to provide specific support tailored to the unique challenges presented in academic and research environments pursuing technology commercialization. McCoy Russell looks forward to further opportunities to engage with AUTM and contribute to the movement of research into application.
