IP Commercialisation Strategy
Commercialising intellectual property successfully has always been an extremely difficult goal for many academic bodies to achieve. Apart from lacking a pool of commercially viable intellectual property as a result of a poorly crafted intellectual property creation strategy, faculties find it particularly challenging to structure a robust & cohesive commercialisation strategy that can effectively and readily deploy cutting-edge innovation highly relevant to current market demands.
You may be sitting on a gold mine of intellectual property but you don’t have the right tools and people to farm it. We can work with you to erect the pillars of a profitable and thriving commercialisation operations within your research institute.

Contributions by all parties involved will be recognised and rewarded equitably so as to encourage continued growth and sustained development of your intellectual property.

2.
Shortlisting high potential technology
Using this framework, you will be able to consistently shortlist and pipeline promising technology with the greatest chance for success in the industry within the next 3 to 5 years, whether through licensing or full-scale deployment into the market.

Preparing for market launch
To prepare the intellectual property for the transition from a laboratory environment to the commercial world, we will assist your researchers in assembling a founding team or building an entire operational team around their concepts.

4.
