Through the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF), faculty and students have the opportunity to patent and license their technologies. More than 99 patents have been granted, resulting in 18 licenses. These efforts are further supported by the D2P Initiative, which accelerates the commercialization process by providing mentorship, development funding, and business expertise.
