Licensing @SSSA
Direct Licensing: along with other researchers,
through business partners (spin-offs, project partners,
local businesses)
Licensing through: SSSA has established an
agreement with a company (MITO S.r.l.) for
promoting the licensing of five patents
Internal procedures: for the assignment of patents of
SSSA to third parties (approval by the Board of CVR,
revision of the agreement and monitoring of
revenues and contract and expiry dates)
Support to IP management
- UVR provides support to the Institutes and
cooperate with the Legal Department for the
drafting of the clauses relating to the aspects of IP,
particularly in contracts research with third parties
- usually companies and other agreements
(NDAs, MTAs)
- UVR has drawn up some templates of agreements
and evaluates the draft of the agreements trying
to find the most appropriate solution to protect
the interests of researchers
Networking
Match-making events
UVR presents last research results and/or activities from researchers and SpinOffs
Joint
TTO
MISSION: to be the research interface for Ministries and local administrations, industrial
associations and industries, venture capitalists and financial bodies to promote the role of
public research in innovation processes
OBJECTIVES
protection and exploitation of research results from public research through education,
dissemination, patenting, licensing, public-private cooperation and start up promotion
improvement of links between universities and companies to enhance research results
based on industrial competitiveness (networking, managing research and know how,
contract tools, joint labs)
generation of new companies from public research
