About this session
The talk aimed to help faculty and researchers understand the process of bringing their research results from the university to society and businesses, where results are developed into new products and services that bring benefit to all.
It offered insight into the pathway from research to discovery, invention to invention disclosure, and intellectual property (IP) protection to commercialisation or licensing — to established companies or through a start-up. The talk introduced the Knowledge Transfer & Commercialisation (KTC) unit at IIE and how IIE/KTC can support faculty and researchers to navigate this path from academic discovery to successful commercialisation, including resources and funding to accelerate the journey.
