Innovation Partnerships’ Role in the Publishing Process
As mobile app publishing transitions to ITS, Innovation Partnerships continues to support University of Michigan mobile applications in matters related to early-stage app ideas, invention disclosure tracking, revenue distribution, intellectual property, and commercialization.
Digital Discovery Program for Early-Stage App Ideas
If your mobile app is still in the idea stage, Innovation Partnerships can support you through the Digital Discovery Program, a 6–8 week process that helps U-M faculty and staff transform early software-based ideas from rough sketches or brainstorms into clear, well-structured concepts.
