In particular, programs like Wake Up Start Up and the BOSS Competition encourage entrepreneurship and company formation around cutting-edge student ideas, whether or not businesses have been developed around that idea alreadyto push the bounds of what is possible at Ohio State. Moreover, the TCO offers unparalleled opportunities for entrepreneurs who are really passionately dedicated game changers - access to key networks, introductions to TechColumbus and other key investors, accelerators and growth partners are just a few of the several functionalities that the TCO provides. The main complain of the TCO is that they do not give students easy access to the technology that Ohio State researchers for them to form companies around.&nbsp;</span></span></span></span>

This disables them from forming companies around these innovative technological advances.</span></span></span></span> <span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-ce7140cc-7fff-f63f-ec59-f17b40b023f4"><span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">With regards to tech commercialization, faculty members are unaware of the many beneficial resources readily available with help of the TCO. As a result, Ohio State has seen subpar commercialization, both in terms of quantity and quality when it comes to pipeline products. As a resultTo combat this, the university has seen several clubs form, with a mission to lubricate the pipeline. One of the notable organizations involved here is Universities Allied for Essential Medicines (UAEM).&nbsp;</span></span></span></span><div><br/></div>
