On April 18, 2017, Tech Launch Arizona held its fourth annual awards event at the University of Arizona Jim Click Hall of Champions at McKale Center. The I-Squared Expo & Awards honors those whose work directly affects the quality of life for people in Tucson, across Arizona and throughout the world through research, collaboration and technology commercialization.

While previous TLA I-Squared events honored specific individuals, this year’s event expanded the concept, including an expo that showcased eight UA startups built commercializing inventions from across the University.
