TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER OFFICE
REGULATIONS
Technology Transfer is the process of moving results of scientific research from the laboratory to the marketplace
and society. The process to commercially exploit research can vary widely. It can involve licensing agreements
or setting up joint ventures and partnerships to share both the risks and rewards of bringing new technologies to
market. However, the main aim of technology transfer is to take fundamental scientific discoveries and make
them into marketable products so that the general public at large can benefit from the research as quickly and
efficiently as possible.
The Technology Transfer Office (TTO) is a service dedicated to the management and licensing of intellectual
property generated at the research institute or university. TTO is staffed by specialists in the research area,
intellectual property, licensing, business development, and legal matters who are experienced in transferring
technologies from the life sciences to organizations outside the Institute.
