University of Kansas(x)
The University of Kansas (KU) encourages an environment that sparks intellectual energy and embraces the pursuit of knowledge. As the state’s flagship institution, KU has forged a tradition of excellence in its mission to serve as a center for learning, scholarship, and creative endeavor. Research and Technology Transfer play integral roles in that mission.
The Office of Technology Transfer & Intellectual Property (OTTIP) facilitates the transfer of technology by assisting KU researchers with intellectual property protection and commercialization, maintaining entrepreneurial and industry resources, and summarizing technology transfer activity for statistical and outreach purposes.
It is important to KU and its research enterprise to partner with business and industry. Collaborating on sponsored projects and transferring technology for public use are part of the University’s goal of being a leader in addressing the issues and challenges facing the state of Kansas and beyond. KU OTTIP staff work closely with KU researchers and area economic development organizations to forge and manage productive relationships with industry.
