OFFICE of Technology Transfer:
The intermediaries for conversion of Academic Research intoEconomic Value
The team is,
•At the intersection of Academic World and Industrial World
•Managing the process with a completely professional approach
• Working to make sure the two worlds communicate with each other
•Providing a complete package of services included in the process
Why a seperate Office?1) Different Priorities of Academicians
Performance criteria : “Publication emphasis”
Patenting- not the highest priority
Lack of Enterpreneural spirit & Financial Expectation
2) Industry needs guidance to locate the research it needs
Facilitation of the commercialization of process is necessary
3) Patenting is a long-haul and costly process, thus discouraging
Objectives of TTOs?
• To offer Academic Research into Industry’s Service
• To exploitation of knowledge further than “academic publication”
• To create financial resources for continuation of University R&D
• Rightful financial compensation of Academicians
• Assistance to those who wish to become entrepreneurs throughformation of “spin-off”s
Objectives of TTOs-2?
• To supply the research needed by the industry via our own universities, instead of importing knowledge.
• Increasing Number of Patents and decreasing InventionDisclosure through IPR Subsidies
• Encouragement of potential academicians to choose METU through a succesful TTO.
• Creating a “bluer” sky for students who plan Research as a career, conversion of brain drain.
