Our Mission
The Mission of the Office of Technology Transfer (OTT) is to support UNCG's effort to encourage innovation and disseminate knowledge.

OTT at a Glance
UNCG's OTT serves five major purposes:
- Consulting on intellectual property and technology transfer.
- Determing the patentability and assessing commerical potential of the disclosed inventions.
- Administrating the patent process.
- Negotiating licensing agreements.
- Supporting UNCG inventors in establishing start-up companies to commericalize their inventions.
