Commercial License

A commercial license is required when a company or organization wishes to obtain license rights to intellectual property developed at the Laboratory. A commercial license agreement defines the scope of rights granted to the licensee and the fair market value compensation to the University in consideration for granting such rights.

Types of Commercial Licenses

  • Exclusive: The Laboratory grants a licensee the right to commercialize the intellectual property, typically for a specific field of use.
  • Nonexclusive: The Laboratory grants multiple licensees the right to use the intellectual property.
  • Option: The Laboratory agrees not to license the intellectual property to any other licensee for a specified period of time.

Performance Milestones: These represent specific target dates and deliverables within the Diligence section of the license agreement to ensure the licensee is actively pursuing commercialization of the technology.
