Intellectual Property Policy

Staff, non-staff members and students at the University are encouraged to engage in innovative and entrepreneurial thinking. Forming a spin-out company is just one way to commercialise intellectual property (IP). It is the route typically considered when there is no existing business to approach about the new IP or because the technology has clear potential to generate many products and engage multiple sectors. Such opportunities are known as platform or disruptive technologies. This guide is designed to provide guidance and support to those contemplating following this route.
