The NAI Invention Ambassador program, in partnership with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), showcases accomplished inventors across diverse fields, addressing the pivotal role of innovation in driving social, economic, and environmental progress. We aim to recognize and encourage current and future inventors, celebrate and showcase the importance of academic invention, share best practices for the innovation ecosystem, and inspire the creation of a culture of inclusive innovation, ensuring shared impact for all.
NAI Invention Ambassadors are from a cross-sector of innovation fields and a range of perspectives, cultures, genders, and expertise. They also include NAI Fellows, Honorary Members, and champions from NAI Member Institutions who will be able to share their unique insights. They will be deployed to speak to varied audiences across the country, including students, education leaders, STEM professionals, and other stakeholders within the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. See the full list of Invention Ambassadors.
NAI Invention Ambassadors are available upon request for virtual and in-person speaking engagements.
