“Successful Technology Transfer From Universities: Ten Important Considerations”
Many successful companies have been built on technology transferred from universities. Likewise, for small start-ups and large businesses alike, effective transfer of intellectual property (IP) can be critical. This talk reviews 10 important considerations for successful IP transfer from universities. Subjects covered include:
• “Do’s and don’ts” for IP transfer from universities,
• Facets of the agreement between the university and the business,
• Strategies to enhance relationships between the university and the business, and
• How the new first-to-file patent law affects technology transfer from universities.
