Case 1

Under an Option Agreement, a company may conduct a feasibility study based on the technology for a limited period before licensing.

Case 2 A company may enter into a License Agreement directly in case there is no feasibility study needed.

If inventors agree, a company can enter into a Collaborative Research Agreement along with Option Agreement or License Agreement. A competitive research funding may be suggested if any available.
In addition, we support your commercialization of university inventions upon your request by matching upstream and downstream companies.
