A new streamlined system to enable University of Nevada, Reno and DRI faculty to begin start-up companies based on their research and development, and to seek entrepreneurial partners from the business community to encourage economic development, has been put in place by the institutions’ Technology Transfer Office. This system is based primarily on a new standard license agreement, the “NSHE Express,” available to faculty-based start-up companies.
“The Tech Transfer Office is committed to facilitating and encouraging our faculty who want to engage in entrepreneurial activities, and to encouraging economic development and diversification that benefits the State of Nevada,” Ryan Heck, patent counsel and director of the TTO, said. “This opens the door even wider for Nevada companies to develop new technologies in partnership with the University and DRI.”
