Protect the Value Created Through Research and Innovation
Intellectual property guidance for researchers, faculty members, students and academic institutions developing original ideas, inventions and creative work.
A valuable idea deserves informed evaluation and appropriate protection.
Research can lead to new processes, products, methods, systems, designs and original works. Understanding what can be protected—and how to approach the process—is an important part of converting academic work into lasting intellectual value. Vwrite Research Labs supports the initial evaluation, documentation and coordination involved in intellectual property protection.
