Innovation

Turning innovation into patient benefit.

To improve the lives of people with speech and hearing disorders, the reConnect Institute’s mission is to turn research findings into tangible products and solutions—new drugs, medical devices, and diagnostic tools.

Our innovations span gene therapy, hearing aids, cochlear implants, dyslexia solutions, and treatments for hearing-related dementia. This mission relies on our Innovation & Industrial Partnerships Department.

A facilitating department

The department is the main point of contact for industry partners, entrepreneurs, and investors.

It is also the single contact for researchers and physicians seeking to protect their inventions.

Do you have a project?

The Innovation and Partnership Research Department is staffed by a team with extensive experience in hearing and neuroscience.
