To give commercialisation of university inventions a real boost, TLB has entered a collaborative arrangement with Technologie Allianz (Technology Alliance) e.V. and the Deutscher Technologiedienst (German Technology Service) GmbH.
To assist and intensify collaboration with other patent commercialization agencies, TLB has concluded cooperation agreements with the following organisations:
- IMG Innovations-Management GmbH
- TransMIT GmbH
- PROvendis GmbH
- rubitec Gesellschaft für Innovation und Technologie der Ruhr-Universität
- PATON Patentinformationszentrum und Online-Dienste
Under these cooperative arrangements, the partners assist each other in the evaluation of technologies and the identification of suitable licensees. This creates important synergies by providing access to specific industry contacts to a broader range of agencies.
