Learn about Conflict of Interest at Georgia Tech

Enjoy coffee and networking as you learn how to navigate the conflict of interest process at Georgia Tech.

• Explore the challenges faculty entrepreneurs face when navigating conflict-of-interest requirements and commercialization processes.
• Identify opportunities to streamline processes, reduce administrative barriers, and improve the faculty experience.
• Understand how Georgia Tech balances research integrity and institutional compliance with its commitment to entrepreneurship and innovation.
