In previous years, iGEM had an entrepreneurship track. Teams were encouraged to build projects and focus on commercializing their work. We have now moved to an award as the best work in this area may come from teams who are not solely focused on entrepreneurship.

<p>The Best Supporting Entrepreneurship award recognizes exceptional effort to build a business case and commercialize an iGEM project. This award is open to all teams to show that entrepreneurship is something all teams can aspire to do with their project. This award can go to an new project, or to a previous project that a team aimed to commercialize. Have you filed a provisional patent on your project/device/process? Have you raised money to build and ship products? Have you pitched your idea to investors and received money? As always in iGEM, the aim is to impress the judges!

<h3>Patents and intellectual property</h3>
+
−
 
+
−
<p>
+
−
If your team is seriously considering commercializing and looking into building a company after the competition, you may want to look at how you are going to protect your work and secure investment. Investors will usually require some form of intellectual protection, so you may want to investigate how to apply for a patent or provisional patent in your country and region before disclosing your project at iGEM. Remember that you can only be evaluated in iGEM based on what you share on your wiki and at the Jamboree, so any work you don't present can't count towards your project. </p>
+
−
 
+
−
<p>This is an area where we are different as we care about sharing, openness and contributing to the community and investors don't always agree with these values. It is up to you and your team to decide what to do. Remember that most universities have a commercialization department and that you can talk to them before coming to a decision.

Team:Cornell - 2018.igem.org

Entrepreneurship
Our team holds a great emphasis upon incorporating entrepreneurship throughout our projects. With this year’s project Oscillate, there are numerous opportunities to explore applications of our emergent technology. From cellular computation to co-culturing to nanoparticle control, this project can have a sizeable impact on a variety of domains. We look forward to discussing our innovations with the Cornell entrepreneurship community to greater assess the potential applications of Oscillate!
Oxyponics (2017)
Our 2017 project, Oxyponics - winner of Best Supporting Entrepreneurship - truly captured the essence of entrepreneurship from start to finish. By developing core aspects of the project at the Rev: Ithaca Startup Works incubator, our product development team was immersed in the startup atmosphere and gained contacts with investors and experienced creators throughout the summer. The business and operations team further explored the application of the product and developed business and marketing plans while establishing potential paths for the project’s next steps.
fishPHARM(2016)
Our 2016 project, fishPHARM, also utilized Cornell’s expansive entrepreneurship network to provide guidance as the project developed. The team spoke with Marla Coppolino, the Director of Business Development and Outreach for the Institute of Biotechnology at Cornell University to connect us to business experts on campus. At the McGovern Institute, fishPHARM was presented to industry professionals in order to help the team better understand consumer demands. In collaboration with eLab @ Cornell, team members pitched to potential investors.
At Cornell iGEM, we hope to develop products that can provide tangible solutions to global issues. Entrepreneurship is key to that mission as it instills a method of designing projects from idea to implementation. The Cornell community has historically been of great assistance in our project development and expanding the reach of our impact. With this year’s project, we focused on foundational advancements in synthetic biology and we are very excited to explore the applications of this new technology in the future.
