UR Ventures
UR Ventures is the team that facilitates the protection of Intellectual Property and the commercialization — or transfer — of technologies resulting from the cutting-edge research being conducted by our world-class scientists, faculty, and staff at the University of Rochester. Their mission is to translate scientific innovation into tangible products or methods that advance knowledge and serve the public good while returning income to the inventor and to the University to support further research.
RIT Intellectual Property Management Office
RIT's Intellectual Property Management Office (IPMO), and Sponsored Research Offices (SRO) are responsible for managing RIT's intellectual property (IP) portfolio and bringing that IP to the marketplace through licenses and formation of start-up companies. SRO connects RIT's faculty to companies for sponsored research projects and is happy to make connections to RIT research faculty across RIT's campus – Imaging, Computing, Sustainability, Microsystems, Engineering, Science and Biomedical topic areas plus many more.
