Intellectual Property in the public sector
Technology transfer solutions for Public Sector Research Organisations
IP Pragmatics works with a large number of different universities and public sector research organisations both in the UK and overseas. We understand and are sensitive to the often conflicting missions that these organisations face as they balance their teaching, research and government support functions with creating value through technology transfer.
We provide:
- Intellectual property audits on individual projects/technologies or across the organisation
- Intellectual property training courses for scientists and entrepreneurs
- Technology market assessments
- Licensing support (marketing, negotiation and contract completion)
- Business planning and fund raising support
- Assessment of Technology Transfer office infrastructure, processes and delivery
- Patent portfolio management online software - IP Forecaster
- Patent and trademark renewals payment services - IPRIS
For many of our public sector clients we provide ongoing practical technology transfer support. Depending on the needs and objectives of the client the level of support can vary from one-day a month, to one-day a week to a full-time resource. Support can be provided by a specific individual based at the client's site or through several members of the IP Pragmatics team.
