Annual Celebration


Celebrating Technology and Innovation

All year, Emory researchers study and develop groundbreaking technologies with the potential to help the world. When those technologies are patented, licensed, and commercialized, it’s cause for celebration.

Since its inception in 2007, the ceremony has evolved and now consists of seven awards.

  • Innovation of the Year
  • Deal of the Year
  • Start-up of the Year
  • Significant Event of the Year
  • Corporate Partnership of the Year
  • EmpowHER Award
  • IDEAward (Inclusivity, Diversity, and Equity)

Innovation thrives at Emory University. We’re proud to play a part not only in translating research from bench to bedside, but also to celebrate the outstanding innovators working to better our world.
