Technology transfer

We place your technology with the organization that can use it.

Good patents and know-how often sit unused because the people who need them do not know they exist. We find those buyers, licensees and partners, and we carry the deal through to a license, a sale, a joint venture or a full transfer.

We work only for you, the owner, and sit on one side of the deal: yours. We take no fees or commissions from buyers or licensees.

Who it is for

For owners of technology that deserves a second life.

  • Companies that hold patents or know-how outside their core business.
  • University and federal-lab technology transfer offices that want more reach for selected inventions.
  • Inventors and small companies that need a partner with the resources to bring an invention to market.
  • Investors, funds and estates that hold patents and want them licensed or sold.

How it works

From an unused asset to a signed agreement

  1. Understand the asset

    We learn what the technology does, as you present it, what the patents cover, and which markets will pay for it.

  2. Position

    We write a non-confidential summary and build a list of qualified buyers, licensees and partners.

  3. Reach

    We contact the right people directly, in the United States and abroad, and share details only under a non-disclosure agreement.

  4. Negotiate

    We help structure the terms: royalties, an upfront payment, equity, milestones, or an outright sale.

  5. Close and hand over

    We support the agreement and the transfer of patents, data and know-how to the new owner or licensee.

Tell us what you need, or what you want to place.

A short note is enough to start. Please do not send confidential details until we have agreed how to protect them.
