Marketing and business development 29th June – 1st July 2022 | Sitges, Spain
Most knowledge transfer courses assume that the partner is already identified and concentrate on the ‘technical’ aspects of structuring a robust deal. However, the more difficult and time-consuming part of process is finding a partner and generating commitment and enthusiasm to the point where they want to invest in the relationship and do the deal. Using a series of case studies and reflections from experienced practitioners, this course develops frameworks and tools that can be widely used to develop new research and licensing collaborations and structure those relationships in a way that benefits and aligns the motivation of both parties.
Negotiation skills for KTOs 29th June – 1st July 2022 | Sitges, Spain
The interactive workshops include two negotiation simulations and various case studies based on the real-life experience of the trainers. The participants will have the opportunity to assess their negotiation style and will receive feedback on how effective they are at the negotiation table.

Creating successful collaborations
1st February 2022 | 17:00 – 18:00 CET
Jeff Skinner, London Business School, UK Christophe Haunold, University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg
The University TT ‘industry’ bangs on about licensing and spin-out creation, but industry research collaboration is generally a far more effective – and ubiquitous – form of knowledge transfer.
However, businesses often find dealing with universities to be a complete pain, introducing irritating frictions into what should be a relatively straightforward transaction. This happens in part because we’re trying to anticipate what the outputs will be (especially in the form of entangled foreground IP) but also because of convoluted decision-making processes and communication within our own institutions. Some larger businesses have got used to this but the smaller ones and those who we’re working with for the first time are left bewildered and frustrated.
We’re not going to solve the world’s ills in a single session. But we can hold a mirror up to ourselves and maybe identify where we need to apply make-up or target reconstructive surgery.
Creating Successful Spin-outs
24th – 26th January 2022 | Online
This course is for experienced technology transfer managers whose portfolios includes expertise technologies, that may be best commercialised in a spin-out company. We explore what sort of technologies are best commercialised in this way, and the role of TT managers in setting the initial business strategy. The course is interactive, you will learn through case studies and role play facilitated by those who have been actively involved in building, financing and managing successful university spin-outs.
