Transfer of results

What is the transfer of results?

The research activity carried out in universities generates R+D+I results that can be profitably exploited in the market.
In order to ensure that these R+D results flow from the university community to society, the transfer of results process is set in motion, which consists of disseminating, communicating and transferring these results to the different actors (companies, public institutions, foundations, social agents, etc.) that have the capacity to make them available to the general public.
The university function of transferring research results requires their correct management and protection, as part of their valorisation process, whether through Industrial Property Titles (patents, utility models, etc.), Intellectual Property or Industrial Secrecy.

Who is this for?

The information found in this section is for Teaching and Research Staff of the UV and members of the university community in general, as well as companies, investors and other external organisations interested in the research results developed at the Universitat de València.

Why are results transfered?

The principal aim of the transfer of results is to turn the university's knowledge and innovations into new products, processes or services from which the general public can benefit.
The transfer of results of the Universitat de València aims to achieve maximum social and economic impact of the research results developed by the research groups of the UV, so that they reach the end user, businesses and society in general.
