Policies & Tools

Intellectual Property Transfer Agreements (IPTAs)
Intellectual Property Transfer Agreements are used when the original owner of IP decides to transfer (i.e. assign) that IP to another party. Generally speaking, 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 operates on a creator-owned IP practice. As a result, researchers usually own the IP they generate unless they transfer or grant rights to either a third party or 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 to fulfill a contractual obligation. If there鈥檚 an interest to commercialize the technology with 新加坡六合彩开奖直播, the OCIE will manage the associated IP protection (usually patenting), licensing, and commercialization activity.听
新加坡六合彩开奖直播 uses the specially-designed听IPTA for spin-off companies听in cases where Dal inventors intend to create their own company but first require commercialization support from the university for their IP (e.g. IP protection, commercialization funding sources, and other commercialization advice). Upon termination of the Spin-off IPTA and recovery of direct costs, the IP can be reassigned to the inventors in exchange for 2% equity in the spin-off company and a promise to pay it forward. If there鈥檚 a successful liquidity event, the university re-invests this value back into OCIE鈥檚 patent legal fund, which then supports the next opportunity for patenting, licensing and commercialization within the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 research community.听
Conflict of Interest Policy
A conflict of interest exists when the personal interests of a university member contradict the member鈥檚 obligation to uphold the interests and mission of the university.
