TechTransfer Office

A Tech Transfer Office is a university or research institution department that helps turn innovative ideas and research into practical products or services. They identify discoveries with commercial potential, protect intellectual property like patents, and connects inventors with companies or entrepreneurs interested in developing the technology. Their goal is to ensure valuable research benefits society by bringing new innovations to market while facilitating partnerships and managing licensing agreements. Essentially, they serve as a bridge between academic research and the business world, enabling inventions to move from the laboratory into real-world use.
