Technology Transfer

We transfer the research results of the Institute of Molecular Genetics into practice. In the Centre of Technology Transfer (CTT), we connect researchers with the commercial sphere and supervise the use of the procedures and technologies developed by us under fair conditions.

Services for researchers:

  • intellectual property (IP) consultancy,
  • assistance with the notification of creation of a research tool or submitting a patent application,
  • finding a suitable commercial partner,
  • negotiation, administrative and legislative support.

Services for commercial organisations:

  • liaison with the inventor of the discovery,
  • market research with regard to the commercial potential of the technology,
  • securing a licence,
  • assistance with setting up a spin-off company.
