  Focus Area: Business Innovations    
       
 

The genomics revolution has tremendous implications and opportunities for the business community, at all levels. Although a Business Innovations focus area has not yet been formally constituted, faculty from the Johnson Graduate School of Management, the Department of Applied Economics and Management, and the Cornell Biotechnology Center have begun planning. Possible activities include, but are not limited to: business education and training for scientists, covering topics such as capital markets, venture capital, and entrepreneurship; genomics and life sciences educational opportunities for business executives and others; research and outreach exploring the business, economic, and societal impacts of genomics research, including the development, marketing, and distribution of "e-Learning" and other continuing education materials.
