For inventors who prefer not to sign up directly, there is an alternative pathway through the Campaigns Hub. Inventors may provide their patent summaries, non-confidential research summaries, or other relevant information in Word documents or PDFs directly to the Technology Transfer Office. The office will then facilitate the upload of these files for relevant Campaigns within the NJIT dashboard on Inpart, ensuring your innovations are considered for appropriate opportunities without requiring direct platform registration from every inventor.

To further support engagement with technology transfer, the Inpart Tool Kit provides insightful articles:

• Articles for Academics - The Benefits of Engaging with Technology Transfer
• Articles for TTOs - Engaging Academics

This service enhancement with Inpart underscores NJIT's unwavering dedication to fostering innovation, supporting our innovators, and ensuring that the impactful research conducted at our institution translates into real-world solutions and economic growth. We encourage all inventors to explore this exciting new avenue for technology commercialization.
