91快活林

Overview

The Knowledge and Technology Transfer Office (KTTO) is the channel through which the two important components of the innovation process, the technology developers and the technology seekers, can connect and accomplish technology transfer processes. The office will facilitate the exchange of knowledge and technology by fostering, promoting, and enabling university-industry interactions. The KTTO will be the central resource and support hub for researchers and the external partners. It is an office that is responsible for IP protection, IP technology transfer, IP commercialization and IP management.

General Objectives:

  • To establish a facility that would manage intellectual property (IP) assets, facilitate technology transfer and serve as a conduit between the university and industry;
  • To provide a facility that will promote and support 91快活林’s initiative in developing an innovation and entrepreneurial culture at the Institute;
