143 Universities in the USA Listed with One-Click Access to the Current Patent Portfolio of Each School
Technology Transfer Tactics and Patents Online, LLC today announced a strategic alliance, whereby the two firms are collaborating to offer a unique database of all patents held by major universities in the United States.
Visitors to the www.technologytransfertactics.com/university-patents can view the current patent portfolio of each of 143 prominent U.S. universities, and with one mouse-click can see the entire patent portfolio of each institution.
Also, from this web page, users can initiate a patent search at www.freepatentsonline.com, the most visited site in the world for patent information.
The Technology Transfer Tactics monthly newsletter provides in-depth guidance designed to streamline the commercialization process, as well as maximize the financial benefits of that process for universities and other research organizations.
“Technology Transfer Tactics is the pre-eminent periodical on amplifying and expediting the commercialization process for university IP,” said Erik Reeves, CEO of Patents Online, the company behind FreePatentsOnline. “We are very excited to be working with them to better expose the patent portfolios of all the key schools of higher learning across America. This will bring these universities more opportunities to increase licensing revenues.”
“Historically, the patent portfolios of companies and institutions have been only dimly visible,” said David Schwartz, CEO and Executive Editor of Technology Transfer Tactics. “Not only has FreePatentsOnline aggregated the largest audience in the world for patents and created unrivaled search capability, but they’re applying new ways of sorting and visualizing patent information to help accelerate the commercialization process.”
Patents Online also offers www.sumobrain.com, a free alternative to the pay services in the patent search domain. SumoBrain features full-text cross-collection searching of US & EP patents and applications, PCT documents and Japanese abstracts, and brings higher account limits and bulk PDF capabilities.
