== Student Entrepreneurship ==
Sample text At the University of British Columbia, student entrepreneurial efforts mainly feed through the entrepreneruship@UBC program which is operated by the university directly. Located on the lower level of the Graham Lee Innovation Centre in the Robert H. Lee Alumni Centre, entrepreneurship@UBC garners alumni support through the e@UBC Seed Fund which holds interest in more than 12 student and/or faculty founded ventures.
== Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==
Sample textUBC allows equal opportunities for both their students and faculty. This policy extends to the entrepreneurship@UBC program where faculty members are encouraged to make us of the resources available.
Specifically for commercialization in the areas of engineering and life sciences, the University-Industry Liaison Office technology transfer office assists in the creation of "spin-off" companies enabling faculty to bring the latest in research to market.
== University Technology Transfer Function ==
Sample textThe university's technology transfer office is operated through the University-Industry Liaison Office (UILO).
The UILO works with the research community at UBC and its Affiliated Hospitals to translate research outputs, including patentable inventions, proprietary materials, research tools, software and other innovations, out of the academy for the betterment of society.
UBC shares 50% of net revenues generated through commercialization with the inventors of the commercialized technology.
== University - Industry Collaboration ==Intellectual property rights are fair and genuine at UBC (outlined below).
