Go Pitt innovators!!! The University of Pittsburgh has continued its rise among the Top 100 Worldwide Universities Granted U.S. Utility Patents. (Pitt also set a new record for startups.) “Pitt innovators increasingly are recognizing the value of translating their research, as these new records show, and with the University’s support the pipeline continues to fill. Our discoveries are key to building the region’s innovation ecosystem and to bringing new solutions to unmet needs across the globe.”-Evan Facher, Interim Director, Innovation Institute
