In the article "GW Launches National Academy of Inventors Chapter," GW Today announced that 38 GW faculty members were inducted into the university's newly launched chapter of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI) last week. This chapter will further strengthen GW's innovation community by providing resources and networking opportunities to established inventors as well as a mentorship platform for the next generation of inventors.
