The Faculty of Science (FoS) is thrilled to support start-up companies led by science students and faculty members.

Get Started

If you are a student or faculty member in the FoS, contact the Office of the Associate Dean (Research & External Relations) to discuss how the faculty can help you take your technology to market.

The Process

Researchers in the FoS disclose their inventions to the McMaster Industry Liaison Office (MILO), who then work with the inventors to protect their IP, evaluate market opportunities, and commercialize technologies through licensing opportunities or the creation of start-up companies. MILO works with other service providers, such as The Forge and Innovation Factory, to support spin-off companies to take products to market.
