MANAGING THE TRANSFER TO A COMPANY
• For the purpose of improving exposure of our technology offer, the transfer space on our CIBERES web as well as the space dedicated to the CIBERES technology offer in which there are currently 8 technology offers of CIBERES ideas are constantly updated . These documents have been drafted by PDTT for the CIBERES web page and for being sent to companies . They present ideas that are co-owned by CIBERES and for patents of CIBERES groups . Furthermore, specific documents of these offers have been prepared for dissemination to the Europe Enterprise Network (EEN) .
• This documentation was required in order to be presented to specific companies in the area, which have been sought and actively contacted concerning the presented product . At least 10 companies were contacted in relation to every transfer patent managed by PDTT CIBERES .
• For the purpose of assuring an operative response in the protection and transfer process, the PDTT has also been responsible for drafting and/or reviewing and managing non-disclosure agreements, collaboration agreements and licensing agreements, as well as reports for specific questions sent by companies, among others .
• In 2014, the PDTT has furthermore made contact and exchanged information relating to a technology offer with other platforms interested in the transfer, as is the case of the KTT- CEDARS-SINAI office and the National Network for the discovery of new antibiotics (AD-SP) .
Promoting CIBERES innovation outside CIBERES
Besides disseminating the CIBERES technology offer directly to companies, the PDTT works to promote the ideas and the capabilities of our work programmes and of our investigators and groups . Some of the work done throughout 2014 includes:
• CIBERES as a collaborator in the ITEMAS Platform. Participation in the ITEMAS Assessment Work Group .
• Drafting and preparing CIBERES documentation to be presented in meetings, to companies and other entities. PDTT posters, PDTT CIBERES dossiers, technology offer and objectives of the Corporate Programmes .
• Sending notifications relating to company/innovation to the CIBERES/CIBER web page.
• “CIBERE’s networking” . Presenting CIBERES, its offer and its capabilities (co-owned by CIBERES or CIBERES groups) in Forums, to companies, to entities that support innovation, to networks, at informative meetings and in specific training courses, as well as to generate contacts and agreements with institutions of interest for CIBERES transfer .
Establishing CIBERE’s systematic processes in innovation and
transfer
To constantly improve the transparency of processes in the CIBERES transfer/innovation area, and their efficacy and to therefore generate trust and a feeling of proximity to these subjects among CIBERES investigators and the consortium entities, the PDTT has established processes in recent years, such as the drafting of a CIBERES Intellectual Property Regulation and the design of methods under ISO9001 specific for the evaluation and management of protecting ideas.
