Janusz A. Koziński, dean, Faculty of Science and Engineering, Dezsö J. Horváth, dean, Schulich School of Business, and Eileen Mercier cordially invite you to the annual Ernest C. Mercier Lecture in Entrepreneurial Science on Wednesday, May 9, 2012.
This event, titled “Me, Myself and My Network: The Importance of Collaboration to Entrepreneurship in a Capital-Limited Environment”, will be presented by Dr. Michael May. In this lecture, Dr. May will make the case that collaborative network building should be a key component of the entrepreneur’s toolkit, particularly for entrepreneurs focused on advancing technologies and creating companies from the earliest stages of academic discovery.
Dr. Michael May is the CEO of the Centre for Commercialization of Regenerative Medicine, a Canadian not-for-profit dedicated to supporting the development of foundational technologies that accelerate the commercialization of stem cell and biomaterials-based technologies. He completed his PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of Toronto in 1998 as an NSERC scholar, and was awarded the Martin Walmsley Fellowship for Technological Entrepreneurship in recognition of the commercialization of academic discoveries.
