Technology transfer encompasses a variety of legally binding agreements that move inventions out of the institution and into the hands of third parties focused on commercial success. Described here are the fundamental elements of those agreements and the private- or public-sector entities that seek licenses to institutional assets in order to develop products/services for a market.

The patent process is outlined, with an emphasis on utility patents that dominate in academia.

Research carried out in laboratories, field locations, and clinics is inspired primarily by interest, with a secondary and often compelling motivation to improve the human condition. Yet researchers rarely move directly toward meeting a human need: they write academic papers and give talks to other specialists. This chapter shows how commercialization can broaden and deepen the impact of academic research. We also connect experience in commercialization to the shrinking academic job market: careers outside academia are increasingly attractive, and gaining experience with commercialization is a growing (and advantageous) path for many junior researchers.","PeriodicalId":235446,"journal":{"name":"Beyond Discovery","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123576387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
