¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ

Transfer and Patent Strategy

Guided by Leibniz’s motto “theoria cum praxi", ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ (LUH) aims to bring together knowledge-oriented research and practical application in a mutually beneficial way. The university views transfer as a strategic cross-cutting obligation, with research findings applied for the science-based development of society and industry.

The ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ transfer strategy outlines LUH’s position on transfer, ensures transparency regarding transfer and third mission activities, and creates a foundation for acknowledging achievements in this area. Road maps for individual transfer areas outline and further develop specific objectives and measures on a regular basis.

The LUH patent strategy serves as a basis for transferring research findings â€“ primarily technical inventions – available for industrial property protection through patenting to practical application.

This is an important basis for the transfer of research findings into commercial use, both through knowledge-based spin-offs and in existing companies. LUH has adopted a patent strategy in order to guarantee a high degree of transparency and reliability when handling inventions and technical intellectual property rights, as well as to protect the interests of LUH, its researchers and its cooperation partners.
