The Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) works with you to commercialize innovations you create at UVM. As the steward of the University's intellectual property assets, OTT can help protect your rights, assess the commercial potential of your invention, market the invention to potential licensees,and share the revenues from your discovery.
Our staff offer business, technical, scientific, legal, and financial experience needed to handle the entire spectrum of intellectual property administration, from initial assessment to license administration. As you continue to innovate at UVM, we urge you to consider OTT your partner and primary resource.
For an overview of the process, please see our interactive schematic diagram.
New to OTT are two UVMVentures Funds, the Pre-Seed Fund and the Innovations Fund, that provide financial support for the development of inventions at UVM. Information and applications for both are included on this website.
