OTTL鈥檚 mission is to empower 艾可直播 College inventors and authors by protecting their intellectual property, encouraging its wide dissemination, and engaging productively with industry and other partners to bring 艾可直播 College innovations to the broader public. We do this by educating researchers about intellectual property rights and nurturing collaborations which protect those rights and bring return back to 艾可直播 College.

In the case of potentially patentable technology, OTTL shoulders the burden of management and cost of patent prosecution while marketing that technology to potential commercial partners. The goal is always to maximize the productive impact of 艾可直播 College research, which sometimes brings revenue back to the University, its inventors, and their departments.

Faculty and staff are bound by the University Intellectual Property Policy, and their executed Intellectual Property Agreement, to disclose certain intellectual property to OTTL and transfer ownership of that intellectual property to 艾可直播 College. This obligation reflects promises that 艾可直播 College has made under its research contracts to make this intellectual property available for use and license. In exchange, OTTL extends its services to all 艾可直播and staff to support the protection, transfer, and licensing of this intellectual property. Any member of the University community seeking to transfer or commercialize their intellectual property should contact OTTL for guidance.

Faculty seeking to increase their own impact through outside consulting arrangements should, in addition to disclosing such work to the Vice Provost for Faculties, talk with OTTL about the terms of any proposed consulting agreements to consider how such agreements impact their own intellectual property portfolios and obligations to the University. 艾可直播 College cannot negotiate consulting agreements on behalf of 艾可直播members, but can offer insights into how to protect University and 艾可直播intellectual property.
