THE UMIP MISSION
UMIP contributes to the aims and objectives of The University's "Exemplary
Knowledge and Technology Transfer" agenda by providing Intellectual Property (IP)
management and commercialisation activities:
UMIP enhances the reputation and value of the University by:
>
transferring science and technology to the market place through IP sale,
licence or spin-out.
>
making an important contribution to the economy regionally, nationally
and internationally and to the quality of public life.
> reinvesting returns from successful IP commercialisation activities back to
the University, for example, through income from the sale of spin-out
company shares or royalty income from licence agreements.
We look forward to continuing to play a full part in realising the University's
ambition for IP to 2020 and beyond.
