Inventions and Property Rights

Patented inventions are an important factor for the successful implementation of innovations in the market. For the University of Bremen, the inventions, patent applications and registered patents of its scientists form an important basis for knowledge and technology transfer.

Details of the patenting strategy of the University of Bremen can be found here.

One of the goals of the University is the exploitation of its intellectual property: Cooperation is established through suitable agreements and flanked by licensing regulations. With the help of the considerable experience and knowledge already acquired at the University, spin-offs are able to operate under patent protection.
