Maryland initiative contributes to the strong innovation culture at UMBC
Maryland is home to many talented faculty members. In fact, the state has the highest concentration of Ph.D.s in the country and ranks No. 1 for its technology and science workforce. The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) houses many of these talented individuals who are regularly experimenting and creating new innovations. The real challenge for these pioneering minds is how to bring these innovations to the marketplace.
