EOC bridge the gap between academia and industry. We have the resources, expertise, and industry connections to turn your innovative research into commercial opportunities.There are several benefits to research-commercialisation that make it a desirable alternative to traditional research-publication routes. Successful research commercialisation is not only an effective method of disseminating knowledge but can also create real world impact by providing innovative solutions to China and global issues. As a result of successful commercialisation, researchers and inventors from New Zealand have substantially enhanced their academic reputations as well as generating real economic benefits.
We are always on the look-out for new innovations and opportunities. If you or your team are working on research that solves a problem or has commercial potential, then we want to hear from you.You can contact our team to find out more about the resources and services we offer.
EOC has the resources and expertise to support and guide you along your commercialization journey from submitting an invention disclosure through to negotiating a deal.
The commercialization journey begins when you submit an invention disclosure. A disclosure is a confidential record of your idea.Submitting an invention disclosure notifies the team at EOC and begins the process of your commercialisation journey.
Once you have submitted an invention disclosure, EOC will guide you through a preliminary evaluation. This usually involves discussing the technology or invention and conducting some initial market research.
If the invention or technology shows promise following the preliminary evaluation, then the next step is to hold a workshop assessment.This is an opportunity for everyone who is (or will be) involved in the commercialisation journey to meet the inventors and discuss the technology. The workshop is also an opportunity for the investment committee to assess the technologies commercial potential and allocate funding.
After the workshop assessment, work begins on developing a detailed strategy for commercializing the technology or invention. The EOC team work closely with you and assign a project manager to guide you along the commercialization journey.While the inventors work to develop the technology, the eam at EOC also conducts market and patent research.
This is where the commercialization journey comes to an end. Depending on the technology, this might involve a sale of the rights to use the invention, a license for use, or the establishment of a Start-up company to apply the invention.The team at EOC have decades of experience and work hard to negotiate the best deal for the inventors and the university.
