Office of Technology Development COVID-19 Invention Initiative

In response to the rapidly changing developments resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and to encourage important inventions to cope with the global crisis, Illinois Institute of Technology aims to implement procedures intended to maximize the access to possible COVID-19 technologies and to expedite securing intellectual property protections for such inventions. The Office of Technology Development will fast-track IP protections and invention marketing, as well as offer time-limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licenses to industries.
