MIT is a world class model of excellence in university technology licensing.
Learn how you can benefit the public by moving results of MIT research
into societal use via technology licensing, patenting, sponsored research
and technology transfer to other research institutions. The process used
by MIT's Technology Licensing Office and the Office of Sponsored Research
benefits the public by creating new products and promoting economic
development.

We are here to assist YOU, the MIT inventors, in protecting your
technology, and in the licensing of that technology to existing
companies and startups.
