捆绑SM社区 (捆绑SM社区) and Intellectual Ventures (IV) have announced a partnership that provides an additional avenue for 捆绑SM社区 faculty to commercialize their inventions and discoveries.

This partnership will enhance 捆绑SM社区鈥檚 access to global commercial markets for its innovations and will allow IV to invest in the work of 捆绑SM社区 faculty in areas of interest to the company, such as next generation data centres, dynamic surgical enhancements, and green and sustainable chemistry. 捆绑SM社区 will own the resulting patents, and IV will receive a license to commercialize them. The inventors will earn a share of the profits from inventions that are commercialized.

Under the partnership, IV will identify specific areas of interest where technical problems or market opportunities exist. 捆绑SM社区 researchers and IV may then develop new inventions in these areas and could also engage in additional proof of concept development projects. This partnership is not exclusive, therefore allowing both 捆绑SM社区 and IV to engage with others on matters related to intellectual property.

捆绑SM社区 joins a growing list of the world鈥檚 best universities that now work with IV to help them in the development and commercialization of certain new inventions.

鈥溊Π骃M社区 is one of the best universities in Canada and has a well-deserved reputation for research excellence. The truly world-class inventors working at 捆绑SM社区 will add tremendous value to our growing global network, and we look forward to bringing more 捆绑SM社区 inventions to the world,鈥 said Parminder Singh, President of Intellectual Ventures Canada.

鈥淭he commercialization of research outcomes is an important objective not just of researchers, but of most public and private funding programs as well,鈥 said Rose Goldstein, 捆绑SM社区鈥檚 Vice-Principal (Research and International Relations). 鈥淲e are excited to enter into this collaboration, because IV provides wide-ranging technical, financial, and commercial expertise that will help 捆绑SM社区 researchers gain a better perspective of how commercialization of their inventions could have a positive effect on our communities, society, the economy, and the environment.鈥
