IP Valuation at Research Institutes:An Essential Tool for Technology Transfer

The efficient transfer of Intellectual Property (IP) to industry and enterprise partners is increasingly a key objective for many research institutes. Successful and sustainable technology transfer strategies can lead to better cooperation between research institutes and industry. The income received from licensing out technology and forming spin-off companies can be an important factor in making research institutions more financially sustainable. The optimisation of the technology transfer process towards value creation can lead to more successful transfers and increased income from IP assets.
