I'm a researcher at Michigan State University and am putting together a
presentation to promote the concept of open commercialization (bringing
technology to market without IP) to admin higher-ups and I'd like your
help.
*I am looking for more examples to strengthen and simplify the arguments
for open commercialization (no intellectual property) versus traditional
commercialization*. Ultimately, I would like to see this outline as
something that anyone can use to make a similar pitch at other universities.
If you'd like to help, please read through the
outline<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v4bs4SfWk39UmMtxYYeW4DZwEE7lsFHGqoPMIy--C68/edit?usp=sharing>in
google docsand add arguments, examples, and links wherever you see
fit. I've already
noted many places in the outline where I think specific examples would be
valuable.
*Please please share this with other people or lists that you think may be
helpful!*
I think that the time is ripe for making this argument, and Universities
may be ready to consider moving back towards a truly open model of
information. Thanks so much for your help!
