IBEC

Technology Transfer

Breakthrough innovation can only happen if research discoveries leave the lab and reach the market and the users. Translating discoveries into market-ready products require an effective liaison with industry, as well as knowledge on intellectual property protection and exploitation.

The technologies that meet our criteria for commercialization are developed into products and therapies through collaborations and alliances with other research organizations, companies and clinicians, and the creation of new start-ups. The IBEC researchers are supported by the Corporate Projects Unit along the tech transfer and the translation processes, so our most promising results address the market's, and ultimately, the patient's needs in the most efficient manner.
