Industry
Alfred E. Mann Institute (AMI)at Purdue
• Alfred E. Mann is a successful entrepreneur in the medical device field.
• Created $1B+ non-profit Alfred E. Mann Foundation for Biomedical Engineering (AEMFBE)
• Mission is to expedite development of biomedical technologies at partner universities
• Endowing $100M+ non-profit Alfred E. Mann Institutes at partner universities (USC, Technion)
• Purdue is third partner site.
AMI Organizational Model• Operates under umbrella agreement with Purdue
Research Foundation (PRF) to expand our technology commercialization capacity
• Non-profit institute located in Purdue’s Discovery Park (DP)
• Governed by Board comprised of half Purdue and half AEMFBE selected members
• Uses ~$5M endowment income for all operational costs (e.g., rent, staff, resources)
AMI Organizational Model (cont.)
• Invests in and rapidly develops Purdue biomedical technologies
• Licenses developed technologies to companies (startup through established)
• Preference given to Indiana companies in order to fuel the local and regional economy
• Income is shared among inventors, PRF, AMI, AEMFBE
AMI Chief Advantages• AMI will complete analysis on:
– freedom to operate– barriers to market entry– time and cost to market– competitive technologies and market landscape– reimbursement strategies– regulatory approval processes– potential commercial partners
• Immediate resources will be brought to bear on projects developed by AMI
AMI Chief Advantages (cont.)
• Thus, technology will be subsequently licensed to a company when:– technical risk is significantly reduced:
• Working prototype(s)• Commercial scale demonstration• Preclinical and/or clinical studies completed• FDA approvals in process or granted
– market application is well-defined
• Result is a higher market value of the technology
