Elie Sung, a doctoral student at Georgia Tech, recently won the Best Presentation Award at the Technology Management and Policy Graduate Consortium at Stony Brook University on Long Island’s North Shore.
This is quite an honor for Sung, as the stakes were notably high. Competing against over 20 other papers from students representing other prestigious institutions such as Carnegie Mellon, Cambridge, and MIT, Sung managed to break through to the top for the Best Presentation Award. Her paper, titled “Evaluation of a Policy Change Weakening Patents and Its Effect on Firm Strategy,” bested several other presentations from many of the world’s best and brightest fellow doctoral students.
