Labor day has passed, and with it goes summertime, and most of my hopes and dreams. All I have left in my life is fantasy football and preparing for next spring’s AUTM Annual Meeting (AM). I’ve been wonderfully excited to blog about new initiatives for the upcoming AM, but the changes to the program are so substantial in comparison to previous years, I struggle to decide where to begin.

Next week, LES is offering a webinar on the Kauffman free agency proposal.
I was about to register for it when I saw that the speakers are the same speakers as were on a workshop on this topic at the LES Spring Meeting, which I attended. It was an excellent panel and I therefore strongly recommend the webinar to you. I have included a quote from Mike Henry of Athena Diagnostics that he made on this panel in my talks on the free agency proposal (e.g., at the ASTP Meeting in Paris this year):

When Jon Soderstrom was president he would blog about the highlights of AUTM board meetings shortly after they occurred. Recent discussions with members indicate that the blogs have been missed, so I am reinstating them.
The board met last week in Chicago for one-and-a-half days. The major topics of discussion were:

Inside or outside the IP system? Business creation in academia
I wrote this from the Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center, where I represented AUTM at the last of the Secretary of Commerce Locke’s four regional University Innovation Forums. I’ll report on this meeting next week. Earlier this week I attended the Central Region Meeting in Memphis. I was given a T-shirt emblazoned with the AUTM logo and “Central Region Rocks!!!!!!!!” and I really can’t argue with that sentiment. A great meeting and many kudos and thanks to Sue Patow and her committee. By the way, Beale Street rocks too.

I apologize to the membership for taking so long to start sharing my thoughts and observations about what is going on in our world. I guess I’m just from the pre-blog generation, but hopefully this old dog can learn a new trick or two. Since I’m rarely short of an opinion, it’s just a question of my getting comfortable with the medium and the immediacy of it.
