Tech Transfer

Technology transfer at NYGC involves dedicated personnel who identify research results (e.g., patentable inventions, tangible materials, and/or copyrighted materials) which may generate potential commercial interest. Strategies are then deployed to facilitate appropriate transfer of these technologies to for-profit entities for further development which hopefully leads to commercialization. The process for transferring technologies may vary. It can involve licensing agreements or setting up joint ventures or other forms of alliances to share both the risks and rewards of bringing new technologies to market. Other corporate vehicles, e.g., spin-outs, might be used where NYGC does not have the necessary interest, resources and/or skills to develop a new technology.
