Bringing innovation and discovery to market
SUNY is an intellectual property powerhouse and the SUNY Technology Accelerator Fund (TAF) strategically invests in SUNY’s most disruptive innovations to accelerate their development and commercialization.
The TAF program gives SUNY researchers a means to gain funding for select technologies and accelerate their development and commercialization.
TAF investments are awarded through a competitive process that evaluates each technology for innovativeness, market potential and financial viability. The goal is to make SUNY discoveries more attractive for licensing and increase their eligibility for federal investment and innovation programs like Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR).
Since its launch in 2011, TAF has made a significant impact on moving products and services based on SUNY-developed technology to the marketplace.
