🚀 Tech Transfer IP & Startups: More Alike Than You Think 🚀 Neal Ghosh nails it here - at 9point8 Collective, we’ve found surprising overlap between tech transfer and early-stage startups—both focused on commercializing innovations, leveraging IP, and targeting high-growth markets despite the risks. With our VentureIQ tool, we’ve adapted diligence to analyze patent filings instead of pitch decks, uncovering tech readiness, market insights, and funding opportunities - all with our proprietary diligence algorithms and #AI. It’s a game changer, saving time and money while accelerating development. If you're in #techtransfer, I'd love to connect and hear about your experiences! #startups #innovation #IP #VentureIQ #AI #commercialization

On the surface, tech transfer operations (e.g. the process of transferring research and IP into commercialized opportunities) and early-stage startups may seem quite different. But when we at 9point8 Collective dug a little deeper, there was tons of overlap which speaks to the essence of zero-to-one development: 1️⃣ Innovation Focus: both tech transfer and early-stage startups aim to commercialize new technologies or solutions that can address real-world problems or create new opportunities. There is no blueprint to follow. 2️⃣ Intellectual Property: tech transfer ventures usually come with robust IP portfolios, including patents and trade secrets, and early-stage startups often focus on developing and protecting their IP to create a competitive advantage. Leverage IP as an asset is a key part of the strategy. 3️⃣ Market Potential: both tech transfer and early-stage startups target markets with high growth potential. They often aim to disrupt existing industries or create entirely new market segments, so targeting the right markets is essential. 4️⃣ Risk Profile: both types of ventures carry extreme risk and ambiguity due to the uncertainties associated with bringing new technologies or business models to market. With all this overlap, we innovated different versions of our diligence and assessment tool #VentureIQ to focus on tech transfer. Instead of a pitch deck as the raw inputs, we used patent filings instead. We wanted to see if our tech could generate credible insight on how raw technologies can be commercialized. The results have been pretty solid so far. From a single patent filing, we can extract technology readiness levels, target markets, competitors and benchmarks with similar technology, and even sources of public and private funding. From what our design partners have validated for us, these are monumental leaps in the development process -- saving thousands of dollars and weeks of time -- all done with #AI.

There is a massive backlog of uncommercialized IP in America, and #TechTransfer offices play a critical role in licensing this IP to #startups and established businesses. The problem? It is an incredibly daunting undertaking, and to date, is largely a manual process. Enter #VentureIQ and its #TechTransfer abilities -- it can ingest an entire portfolio of patents and white papers (yes, you read that right!) and very quickly determine the market opportunity for the technology and identify businesses doing similar things who may stand to benefit (or compete) with the technology. Pretty cool, right?

India should move from consumption based economy to innovation based economy.

A recent nasscom report reveals that 83,000 patents were filed in India, a 24.6% annual increment. Over 100,000 patents were granted between March and March 2024, indicating a burgeoning awareness regarding intellectual property in India. Deeptech #startups, in particular, have collectively filed more than 900 patents since 2008! This milestone underscores India's growing prominence in global tech #innovation. From #AI to #biotech, the high number of patents reflects the remarkable ingenuity and entrepreneurial drive within India's startup ecosystem. It points to India's position as a key player in the global #deeptech arena across a wide range of sectors. https://lnkd.in/d7xNEpSe

Deep tech startups, relying heavily on cutting-edge research and development, have a lot to gain from protecting their intellectual property (IP). Here are some key models to consider: Formal Protection: Patents: Grant exclusive rights to inventions for a limited period, preventing others from making, using, selling, or importing your invention without permission. Crucial for core functionalities or novel processes in your deep tech solution. Copyrights: Protect original creative expressions, like code, designs, or manuals. Can be relevant for specific user interfaces or the creative aspects of your deep tech product. Trade Secrets: Information that gives your business a competitive edge, but isn't publicly known. Can be a good fit for formulas, algorithms or manufacturing processes that are your secret sauce. Additional Strategies: Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs): Legally bind parties to keep confidential information secret. Use these with partners, contractors, or advisors who need access to sensitive details. Trademarks: Protect logos, brand names, and slogans. While not directly protecting the technology, it safeguards your brand identity. #YourDeepTechPartner #DeepTech #Startups
