8 Faculty & Industry Share Many Concerns: (1) Use of Time & Resources University Ensure faculty time & resources are allocated wisely Academic calendar is a challenge when working with corporations Corporation Ensure company time & resources are allocated wisely Universities need to take a more business approach

9 Faculty & Industry Share Many Concerns: (2) Research Goals Desire long-term relationships Master Agreements negotiation time University Silos impede multi-disciplinarity Interest is cuttingedge research, not simply testing Concern with corp. funding impact on career advancement Corporation Value Multidisciplinarity Focus on high-value, high-return Seek access to expertise Focused on few key univ. partnerships

10 Faculty & Industry Share Many Concerns: (3) Recruitment & Communication University Opportunities for UG & Grad students Need better methods of communication between schools, colleges and departments Corporation Talent is driver, interest in recruiting One-stop shop access is very important not searching schools, departments for the best contact

18 New Options in Contracting make for Better Partnerships Laurie Kuhl Director, Contracting Sponsored Program Services 19

19 Purdue - a leader in new contract models 1 of 8 universities featured in 2014 edition of New Models for University-Industry Collaborations by University-Industry Demonstration Partnership... some schools are starting to develop new approaches aimed at making it easier to provide sponsor access to (or outright assignment of) foreground intellectual property rights concurrent with the negotiation of sponsored research agreements...

20 New contracting models will... Engage industry partners more effectively Address varying industrial interests Flexible ownership and use options Provide more opportunities for faculty and industry to work together Advance Purdue s mission for engagement that promotes the application of knowledge

21 Four contracting models Traditional 1. Basic Research 2. Testing Applied Research 3. Existing Technologies 4. Work for Hire

22 Traditional - Basic Research Basic Research To explore solutions in a broad technical area For early stage research

23 Basic Research Basic Research Intellectual Property : Purdue owns Project IP. Sponsor receives non-exclusive royalty-free (NERF) license to w/first option to a royalty bearing exclusive license. Publication: Sponsor has 30-day right to review.

24 Traditional - Testing Testing Needs expertise, labs and equipment to provide feedback with sponsoridentified protocol.

25 Testing Testing Intellectual Property: Sponsor owns project-generated data. Any other IP outside scope. Publication: None

26 New - applied research Applied Research Existing Technology Develop incremental improvements for an existing technology Proof of concept of a known technology To further develop company-owned IP or licensed PRF IP

27 Applied research Existing Technology Applied Research Existing Technology Intellectual Property : Purdue owns Project IP. Sponsor pays IP fee and receives automatic NERF and option for 5-year royalty-free exclusive license, subject to retained license to Purdue for research/education. Publication: Sponsor has 30-day right to review.

28 Applied research Existing Technology Sponsor Background IP (BIP) Purdue Background IP (BIP) Sponsor receives NERF to Project IP Sponsor receives NERF to Project IP Sponsor may elect an exclusive license to Project IP Within defined field of use Fee per field of use Limited duration of 5 yrs Project IP within a defined field of use will be added to existing PRF license with no additional fee IP outside of defined field of use will be market based IP outside of defined field of use will be market based

29 New - Applied research Work for Hire Applied Research Work for Hire Sponsor seeking to identify solutions on proprietary issues Explore viability and solve practical challenges No federal funding involved.

30 New contracting options - applied research Applied Research Work for Hire Intellectual Property: Sponsor owns Project IP. Sponsor pays IP fee. Publication: No right to publish unless Sponsor approves.

31 Summary Sponsor Intellectual Property Rights Basic research NERF and Option for Exclusive NERF and Option for Exclusive Applied Research Existing Technology None Ownership Testing Applied Research Work for Hire

32 Summary Faculty Publication Rights Basic research Applied Research Publish Publish Existing Technology Testing None Do not publish unless agreed Applied Research Work for Hire

33 Negotiation - bringing perspectives together Faculty: What do I have (Background IP) and how will it be used? Will we create Project IP? Will I want to own or use the Project IP after this project is over? Should the project be public? Sponsor: What do I have (Background IP) and how will it be used? Will we create Project IP? Will I want to own or use the Project IP after this project is over? Should the project be public?
