Commercialisation of research
The Commercialisation Team can help academics and researchers with their enterprise activity by assessing and developing ideas arising from their research which have the potential for commercial use or societal or environmental benefit. We then develop and implement plans to bring these ideas to market through licensing or SpinOuts.
Most of the projects we support have a commercial focus, but we can also actively support projects whose returns are non-commercial - such as social enterprises.
Our Intellectual Property Commercialisation Policy provides plenty of useful information and is substantially in line with the Government’s recommendations following the .
The Policy is available on the website (find the Intellectual Property toggle in the A-Z listing). You will need your University username and password to log in and access the document.
We can manage the whole process
