= Actively supporting This section provides opportunities for both UTEC students and external individuals. The goal is to mentor them in the university technology transfer function =field of entrepreneurship, whether they have an idea or already have a business in place. From that point, they meet with experts who guide them through the subsequent steps in the best possible way. If the experts see potential in that idea or business, they assist in securing external funding from sources outside of UTEC to bring that idea to fruition. Recently, many campuses have introduced modern infrastructure, including co-working spaces that students, professors, and, in some cases, community members can use to develop their ideas or network.
''University Technology Transfer Offices (TTO) and Technology Licensing Offices (TLO) have traditionally been the hubs within universities where innovators and outside business leaders engage to commercialize inventions. The recent burst of entrepreneurship on campuses has greatly expanded the role of the TTOs and TLOs. Instead of merely focusing on the commercialization of individual technologies, these offices now act as a central point where students, =Encouraging faculty, alumni, entrepreneurs, investors, and industry can connect with each other. These offices are now focused on identifying innovation and supporting entrepreneurship on campus, helping startups find the best opportunities and building successful business models, changing the culture of their universities, and creating companies that will be based in the communities around the university. TTOs and TLOs have also expanded support beyond their traditional areas, such as energy and life sciences, into education, social innovation, and agriculture.''=

= Engaging In this section, various types of conferences have been organized, where UTEC has covered the expenses to bring relevant actors from global supply chains to share their experiences. Additionally, there is an exchange of knowledge with regional all participants through interactive question sessions. In the field of robotics, a competition was held, attracting participants from the neighboring country, Brazil, who competed with Uruguayan students and exchanged knowledge. All of this took place during a week where they could share, compete, and local economic development efforts =learn about the robotics field.
''Historically, local economic development has been an important mission of the nation’s large universities. Many of America’s leading universities, particularly land-grant universities, have always felt a strong responsibility for the betterment of their surrounding communities. These days, universities are increasingly focusing on innovation =Engaging with regional and entrepreneurship as key contributors to the growth and success of local communities. Universities are requesting the federal government to include commercialization and innovation-driven economic development in their grant programs. In addition, regional economic development planning now often starts with an assessment of a local university’s research strengths. In turn, universities are seeking partners to supplement their strengths and overcome their weaknesses through partnerships with community colleges, non-profit economic development agencies, governments, and entrepreneurship groups. Some universities, such as Tulane University, are asking their students and faculty to contribute to local community development through service and projects. Others, such as North Carolina State University, are building innovation-driven campuses that help surrounding cities and communities prosper.''efforts=

Spring 2016: [[Ann Delaney]]The Regional Technological Institutes (ITRs, by its acronym in Spanish) are the manifestation of UTEC in the territory (the campus).They are located on different regions in the country, based on the local needs for higher education in each place. They are the centers that manage the activities in the region; in order to create a dialogue with the environment, through a strong decentralized profesional path.
When UTEC was first created its main focus was to decentralize centers of higher education in the country from the capital. At the time all uruguayan students could mostly do if they wanted to pursue a college career was to move to Montevideo, and study there. This drastically changed with the arrival of UTEC. Its first institution was built in the southwest part of the country, Fray Bentos. Since then on, all ITRs built have been following the same path and have been designed to fit the communities they were built around.
In UTEC centers don't focus on just one area with a fixed list of careers, since its purpose is to provide more access to education, in each building you can have very different careers from different departments.
When you There are donemany centers throughout the country that belong to UTEC, where the faculty's offices and the classrooms are located. Each center belongs to a subgroup in the university according to its location, add this groups are the tag ITRs. There are currently three well established (although still growing) ITRs, and a fourth one that is at still being implemented (athough already working). The ITRs and their assigned centers are the bottom following: *ITR Southwest #Fray Bentos, Río Negro#Mercedes, Mercedes#La Paz, Colonia#Nueva Helvecia, Colonia#Paysandú, Paysandú *ITR Center-South #Durazno, Durazno#San José, San José#Maldonado, Maldonado (Currently) *ITR North #Rivera, Rivera#Melo, Cerro Largo *ITR East (Still being implemented) #Minas, Lavalleja#Maldonado, Maldonado (In the future) The three main and bigger centers (in terms of every campus overview page so that it is listed size, careers offered and students attending) are the ones located in the Durazno, Fray Bentos and Rivera. =Related Links= [https://utec.edu.uy/es/?pa=inicio UTEC] [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Universidad_Tecnol%C3%B3gica_del_Uruguay_(UTEC)_Student_Priorities UTEC [STUDENTS PRIORITIES]] [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/UNIVERSIDAD_TECNOL%C3%93GICA_DEL_URUGUAY_(UTEC)_STRATEGIC_PRIORITIES UTEC [STRATEGIC PRIORITIES]] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhqifS4oDmY Becoming UTEC (Storytelling video link)] [https://utec.edu.uy/es/educacion/ Available careers] Spring 2017 UIFs: [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Mathias_Rosas Mathias Rosas] [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VDeSItXewnrhmh1ElOIp6i83dcs_qoVTEBkRb9-CQyo/edit#gid=0 Landscape Canvas 2017] Fall 2018 UIFs: [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/User:Icapdevila Irina Capdevila Gonzalez] [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Natalia_Suarez Natalia Suarez] [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JpGamgzte3b8LfkGR39p_X5M1sHJeZlGHtP8w7Y8Mis/edit#gid=0 Landscape Canvas 2018] Fall 2020 UIFs: [https://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Fellow:Ainara_Saralegui Ainara Saralegui] [https://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Fellow:Juan_ignacio_silva_silva Ignacio Silva] [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1K5cMzPK-EwQhNyJ0_TITpitE4YZbDJ-oAmfwRPb2XtE/edit#gid=0 Landscape Canvas 2020] Fall 2021 UIFs: Sofia Alfonso [https://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Fellow:Sofia_Alfonso] Elisa Perez [https://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Fellow:Elisa_Perez] Victoria Pitetta [https://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Fellow:Victoria_Pitetta] Landscape Canvas 2021 [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qpvqxTQ72kM_ig-izNMXinw81a0II5C_3h1i0vrpabE/edit#gid=0] <!-- DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE -->[[Category:Universities Universities] category.][[Category:Schools]][[Category:Universidad_Tecnológica_del_Uruguay]] {{CatTree|Universidad_Tecnológica_del_Uruguay}}
