SUMMARY:CTL@WCM Special Panel on Women's Health
DESCRIPTION:From reproductive health menopause to mental health\, more attention is being paid to women’s health issues as they are becoming less taboo. As of 2021\, the women’s health segment accounts for only 4% of R&D funding and only 1.4% of capital invested in healthcare [1]; however\, it is one of the fastest-growing segments in the healthcare industry. The field is mainly driven by innovation in digital health and surgical innovations. \n  \nIn a special panel\, CTL@WCM will address the opportunities in the field with the lens of commercialization and venture creation. Our guest panelists will provide insight as we explore the trends in women’s health\, the emergence of women-led companies\, and the role of women founders. \n  \nPanelists \n\nTamatha Fenster\, Assistant Professor of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology\, Obstetrics and Gynecology\, Weill Cornell Medicine\nSabrina Johnson\, President and CEO\, Daré bioscience\nVrunda Desai\, Global Head of Medical Affairs\, CooperSurgical\, and Assistant Professor\, Adjunct\, in Obstetrics\, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences at Yale University School of Medicine.\nMaria Velissaris\, Founding Partner at SteelSky Ventures\n\n  \n[1] FemTech Industry 2021: Landscape Overview

SUMMARY:A Plant License - AUTM Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:The anatomy of a plant license is different from that of a biotechnology\, pharmaceutical\, or medical devices license. Different types of intellectual property protect plants\, so drafting associated licenses can be challenging. The deal terms vary according to the type of license. Plants are a huge part of the earth’s ecosystem\, and understanding how they grow and eventually reach the market is attractive. Panelists will cover these issues. Join this session\, and you may even learn how the soybean made it to our dinner plates. \n  \nModerator: \nJill Link\, McKee\, Voorhees & Sease\, PLC \nSpeaker: \nThomas Herlache\, MSU Technolgies \nBrea Hutchcraft-May\, Bayer Crop Science \nJessica Stein\, Cornell University

SUMMARY:OUP Webinar: Ask a VC webinar
DESCRIPTION:Have a burning question on venture capital you need answered? \n  \nJoin the Center for Technology Licensing’s partner\, Osage University Partners (OUP)\, for our second annual ‘Ask a VC’ webinar\, a session where our partner TTOs can ask Managing Partners Marc Singer and Bill Harrington anything and everything as it pertains to venture capital operations\, decision-making\, and the current investing environment. \nSince the purpose of this webinar is to answer your questions on venture capital and startups\, submit your questions early. Query areas could include: \n\nWhat should startups look for in their lead investors?\nWhat are ‘standard’ investment terms these days for startups? Does this vary by Seed vs Series A?\nWhat are the common misconceptions you find that faculty members have about being a company founder?\nWhat does a well-known PI typically receive for founder’s equity?\nHow do SPACs work and what could they mean for university startups?\nWhat do you find are common misconceptions TTOs have about venture capital?\nWhat sources of funding most commonly lead to a startup having a later successful venture capital financing round?\n\nMarc and Bill will also take questions from the audience the day of the webinar\, but sending your questions in advance will put them at the top of the queue. \nThis webinar is free to all of OUP’s academic institution partners (Cornell Faculty and students). \n  \nPanelists: \nBill Harrington\, Managing Partner\, Life Sciences\, OUP \nMarc Singer\, Managing Partner\, Technology\, OUP \n  \nRegistration Link:  https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Zxkj7mUdTu2izYAoPwT5qw \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

SUMMARY:UTS Series #2 - Pitching 101: How to Present Your Startups and Technology Innovation to Potential Funders
DESCRIPTION:For CTL second University Technology Startup (UTS) series\, Margalit Haber and Ajay Rayasam at Osage University Partners (OUP) will focus the session on how an entrepreneur\, or a faculty-entrepreneur can develop and deliver a pitch to gain interest and commitment from potential investors. \nPitching an early-stage science- and technology-based startup to potential funders can be intimidating. Learning how to tailor your presentation and understanding what motivates funders to say yes\, or at least not give you an outright no\, are important aspects of preparing for your initial pitch. This talk will be structured around OUP’s many years of experience in hearing pitches and reviewing pitch decks to provide insight on creating and presenting an initial startup pitch to funders. \n  \nSpeakers:\nMargalit Haber\, PhD\, Associate\, Life Sciences\, OUP\nAjay Rayasam\, M.S.\, Associate\, Technology\, OUP \n  \nRegister at https://cornell.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJAud-2pqzgoGNBJq_SmMtbViIiqdO6CEVyf
