Commercialization

Helping UBC researchers at the Okanagan campus protect and commercialize their high-potential discoveries.

UBC researchers at the Okanagan campus can access commercialization support.  Our goal is to help transform innovative research into impactful products, services, and ventures by offering tailored guidance throughout the commercialization journey.

We work with researchers to:

  • Evaluate invention disclosures
  • Develop and implement appropriate intellectual property protection strategies
  • Explore the potential for creating spinoff companies
  • Market innovations and engage with potential licensees
  • Navigate licensing and collaboration agreements

Researchers benefit from a network of experts and resources that help maximize the societal and economic impact of their discoveries.
