IV INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS UAIPIT 2012 Three proposals of IP & IT information in Internet: EPO IP Calendar, UAIPIT and Technology Transfer Office of the University of Alicante Iván Rodríguez Roselló - UA TTO
Universities have 3 missions: Research. Academia: Training – Courses Technology Transfer
Management Research Service and Who is the person responsible of the transfer (to companies) in Universities? Researchers. Technology Transfer Offices (TTOs). SGITT-OTRI Management Research Service and Technology Transfer
Very interesting but, where is IP here? University Researchers Professors Results Knowledge IP Tech Transfer Companies / 3rd Parties Spin Out Articles Software PhD Thesis Books Databases Research Results Etc.
Knowledge and IP is the core of the process: IP&K Info Technology Portfolio Patent Information Patent “Training” Technology Info R&D Results Patent Strategy “Clients” Internal: Researchers, Professors External: Companies, 3rd Parties
What kind of information we give: Internal: Researchers, Professors IP Protection Promotion Basic Concepts on IP Protection Patent Protection Management Technology Offer Drafting External: Companies, 3rd Parties Technology Portfolio Patent Information Collaboration with University possibilities Assessment IP TT Office Promo IP
