Protection and promotion of results
IDENTIFY, ASSESS AND PROTECT
This page contains general information on the protection of research results and their exploitation. If you do not find the information you need, you can contact directly with the Valorisation and Transfer Area in the Research Management Service (SGI).
One of the best ways to promote the economic exploitation and social benefit of the results of university research is the Transfer of Research Results through Patents (TRIP).
Even so, we must not lose sight of the capacities that the University of Navarra possesses in terms of the Know How generated. This is an intangible asset that we must take into account, as companies often demand it.
The success of technology transfer is based on proper management and involves a teamwork. This is why the collaboration of researchers is required.
Services
Industrial Property services available to University staff include:
-
Identify commercially exploitable research results.
-
Assess their patentability and commercial potential.
-
Protect the results and obtain industrial property rights (patents, utility models, design industrial, etc).
Application
If you believe that your activities have produced some commercially exploitable results, please notify us as soon as possible so that the Research Management Service can exercise the property rights applicable to the case.
Do this before publishing your results, using a questionnaire Result Protection Request form and send it (by internal mail in a sealed envelope) or hand it in personally to the offices of the Research Management Service (Muga building).
Remember not to make your results public before a patent application has been filed. Please do not publish or disclose anything relating to your invention without first consulting questionnaire once it has been submitted.
