What is Technology Transfer?
The Institute shall strive to market the IP and identify potential licensee(s) for the IP to which it has ownership. The creator(s) are expected to assist in this process. The Institute may contract the IP to Technology Management Agencies (Government/Private), for its commercialization.
For the IP for which exclusive rights have not been already assigned to a third party, the creator(s) may also contact potential licensee(s) on the initiative maintaining confidentiality and taking all necessary care so as not to affect the value of the IP, through appropriate agreements such as Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with the potential licensee(s) during technology marketing discussions.
If the Institute is not able to commercialize the IP in a responsible time frame, then it may reassign the rights of the IP to the creator(s) may approach the Dean, SRIC for the assignment of rights of the invention(s) to them.
