Technology Transfer & Commercialization

At SMU's Technology Transfer & Commercialization – TT&C – we work with faculty inventors to bridge the gap between academic discoveries and real-world applications whose value extends from their immediate utility in solving specific problems to their broader influence on economic systems, societal structures, and global challenges.

Whether by enhancing individual autonomy, driving community growth, or solving universal problems, inventions are invaluable to progress and well-being in an increasingly complex world. They not only resolve immediate issues but also pave the way for future innovations and improvements in quality of life on a global scale.  

Our commitment is to help turn your groundbreaking research into impactful societal contributions – as the saying goes:

If it’s used, it’s useful.
