*Please note: this event is only open to current staff and postgraduate students of the University of Cambridge.

Are you interested in creating an impact from your research? Do you wonder how you might do this without having patentable technology, or an idea for a spin-out company?

A brilliant way to achieve meaningful impact quickly is through the licensing of research tools (such as reagents, or software) to external organisations.

If you are an academic, researcher or PhD student based within the University of Cambridge and would like to learn more about how to commercialise the outcomes of your research; this event will give you an introductory overview on how it can be done through research tools.

We will delve into the world of research tools, exploring how to license them, their impact generation, and the support available from Cambridge Enterprise.

What the workshop covers:

• an introduction to how to license research tools, what they include (reagents, software, copyright, database rights etc), and how they generate impact.

• details of how Cambridge Enterprise can help.

• a Q&A session

Workshop details:

Date: Tuesday 19 November 2024
