Thanks to a gift from Yale alumnus Will Roberts ’90, the newly created Roberts Innovation Fund will provide funding, mentorship and business training to help commercialize technology invented at the Yale School of Engineering & Applied Science (SEAS).
Research from SEAS faculty has already helped revolutionize everything from cancer treatment and clean water delivery to quantum computing and blockchain security. The fund will help turn brilliant ideas into real-world products so SEAS research can continue to address the world’s most pressing crises.
