PARTNERSHIP WITH
 UNIVERSITIES
FOR OUR CORPORATE
 CUSTOMERS
 

K-TLO has promoted a technology transfer from Universities to the industrial sector since our establishment (1998). On July 2003, the law “Improvement project for the intellectual properties in University” was enforced and the Universities set up their own IP management sections. From the setting up of the sections in the Universities, we had overlapping works with the sections and it made a complicated process to forward technology transfer.

In recent years, we solved the complicated problems and built up close partnership with the Universities below.

Kyoto University

We have made a contract for a business trust agreement concerned with management for IP in Kyoto University since April 2008. Our staff members evaluate inventions(except a medical field) from the University’s researchers and support the patent application with exclusivity. From the formulation of the structure, we are representative to IP management section on Kyoto University and a company which is interested in the University’s IP is able to contact us on unify.
Furthermore we established a branch office in the University and 8 staff members work in the office.
