Technology transfer
Pioneering research often results in the development of innovative technologies. To harness their transformative potential, these technologies must be transferred from academic laboratories to real-world applications, known as technology transfer.
While granting licenses and securing patents are important aspects of technology transfers, they are part of a broader series of steps that include:
- Invention disclosure: submitting a report of invention form is a crucial first step that allows the Partnerships, Intellectual Property and Security team to assess the commercial potential and possible avenues of IP protection for your invention.
- Assessing the return on investment (ROI)
- Protecting the technology
- Licensing and commercialization
Our Partnerships, Intellectual Property and Security team is committed to supporting you on the path to commercializing your technology.
If you have questions about the process or need additional information before submitting a Disclosure of Invention (DOI), please contact Valeria Marquet, senior specialist, Intellectual Property.
