Hommert, Sandia Working Modes OCGP works closely with Corporations and Faculty to Address their Shared Goals and Challenges: Research Goals Long-term relationships (and/or Master Agreements) streamline research. Multi-disciplinary approaches are highly valued. Recruitment and Communication Student internship / employment opportunities a priority. Improved methods for communicating is a priority. Use of Time & Resources It is a priority for corporations and faculty that time and resources are used wisely. Coordinating the business and academic calendar is a challenge.

6 Value of Working with Industry Broadened funding opportunities Potential cost-share and support for federal funding Valuable feedback Student opportunities Closer to nearer-term real-world impact Opportunity to bring technology to market Working with Industry Projects usually begin at a smaller scale, looking for early wins, and increase over time if successful Seek multidisciplinary impact and teams Projects often bring more complexity due to interdisciplinary nature Looking to define impact on future products Expect deliverables on a deadline and on budget Follow-through and Follow-up are vital On-going communication OCGP Working with Industry 6

7 Considerations for Industry Overhead (Facilities & Administration/F&A) Not a tax this is a common misconception by industry Confidentiality is a must SPS creates and approves all CDA/NDA/PIA s Do not sign a CDA/NDA/PIA without SPS review Do not send materials to a company until you have a MTA in place Intellectual Property Several options Partnership Success - Rolls-Royce 1 st Building in the Purdue Aerospace District, opening March 2017 Purdue and Rolls Royce $33 million strategic partnership, announced April 2016 Focused research on selected technologies Fellowships, Interns, Co ops High level Purdue partnership manager to ensure ongoing success OCGP Working with Industry 7

16 Foundation Relations 1. What is a foundation 2. Why we interact with them 3. How we interact with them What Are Commonly Thought of As Charities 501(c)(3) Religious, Educational, Charitable, Scientific, Literary, Testing for Public Safety, Private Foundations Public Charities All 501(c)(3) organizations that don't qualify as public charities; some private foundations are additionally sub-classified as private operating foundations or private non-operating foundations, which receive some of the advantages of public charities 509(a)(1) 509(a)(2) Publicly-supported charities Exempt purpose activitysupported charities Foster National or International Amateur Sports Competition, Prevention of Cruelty to Children or Animals 509(a)(3) 509(a)(4) Supporting organizations for 509(a)(1) or 509(a)(2) charities Public safety charities 6

17 Nature of Foundation Giving Original donor had a cause they were interested in Desire to change a region Create national impact on a particular issue Gather information and disseminate information Provide ongoing support for specific organizations Why Interact with Foundations? They are set up to give away money to nonprofit entities Typically support: o Research, programs, seed money Typically do not support o Capital projects, endowments, ongoing operations 7

18 How Do We Find the Right Foundation? Requests for Proposals Faculty or program director identifies a potential connection A project, program, or research has been identified as an area of need and a priority Foundation Grant Process 8

19 Communicating with Foundations Contact us to help you with Letters of Inquiry Applications Phone Calls Reporting/Stewardship Invitations to Campus (rare) Remember Foundations exist to give away money to help society. If you have a project that fits with a foundation s guidelines, you are in fact helping them achieve their mission. 9

28 Intellectual Property 15 What is Intellectual Property? The following types of property are recognized as IP under applicable law: o An Invention and any associated patent application or patent o A Copyrightable Work and any associated copyright or copyright registration o A Trademark and any associated registration o Research Data o Tangible Research Property or other evidence produced in the course of research o A trade secret Intellectual Property that arises in any part in the course of employment or enrollment at the University, or in the course of a work for hire relationship or visiting scholar relationship with the University 8

29 What is Not Intellectual Property? The University permits authors to retain and manage the copyright to Instructional Copyrightable Works and Scholarly Copyrightable Works, subject to a license in favor of the University The University permits a student to retain title to Intellectual Property that the student creates for (1) credit and (2) without compensation in a University course through the use of (3) course wide resources, provided that the Intellectual Property is not burdened by any pre existing contractual obligation of the University (all 3 must exist) Intellectual Property from research directed and funded under a work for hire contract administered by the University s Sponsored Program Services is not Purdue Intellectual Property Intellectual Property from research performed pursuant to a University contract that expressly exempts the research from the application of this policy is not Purdue Intellectual Property Intellectual Property generated solely in the course of an Outside Activity without the use of University Resources or pre existing Purdue Intellectual Property is not Purdue Intellectual Property Traditional Approach IP and Publications Research IP made by one party belongs to that party (i.e., ownership follows inventorship under US Patent Law) Research IP made jointly by both parties belongs jointly to both parties Each party retains its rights in background IP Each inventor assigns IP to employer Sponsor may receive non exclusive royalty free license ( NERF ) for research purposes Sponsor gets first option to negotiate an exclusive, royalty bearing license on commercially reasonable terms Options are typically time limited; university seeks to find licensee to develop or commercialize and pay patent expenses Researchers free to publish research results researcher must have unfettered publication rights. Copy of publication provided to Sponsor Sponsor given time to review & comment on publication Sponsor may request limited delay for filing patent application 9

30 Current Trends Sponsor Demands/Impact Demand Sponsors no longer satisfied with a traditional approaches Requesting/insisting that agreements include CNERF NERFs and CNERFs do not generate licensing revenues to university or ensure commercialization of IP Sponsors are asking for specific license terms or pre negotiate the license agreement or assignment Impact Research no longer qualifies as basic research and may instead be considered a private business use May jeopardize university s tax exempt status & cause university to violate tax exempt bond commitments if not managed Non exclusive licenses may impair commercialization of IP because university cannot grant an exclusive license to any third party Certain rights may limit the PI s ability to do follow on projects Novel Approach Some universities are offering Sponsors additional and less restrictive IP rights to encourage high levels of privately sponsored research funding These novel approaches are generally not available for any projects that receive funding from federal grants Leaders in novel approaches o University of Minnesota o University of Arizona o Penn State o Georgia Tech o Iowa State University o University of Oregon o University of Michigan o Purdue University 10

31 Purdue s Novel Approach Model 1: Basic Fundamental Research offers no assignment rights; Sponsor receives NERF with option to negotiate a royalty bearing license Model 2: Expanding Technologies Model offers no assignment rights; Sponsor receives a five year, royalty free license for an upfront IP fee protects faculty s publication rights Model 3: Work for Hire/Industry Focused Applied Research: Sponsor will own new IP outright once the upfront IP fee is paid protects faculty s publication rights Model 4: Testing Services does not contemplate new IP being created; Sponsor owns data created. No Purdue BIP is included. Sponsor controls publications Industry Sponsored Student Class Projects assigns or licenses IP rights to the Sponsor, but allows students to opt out of these projects to pursue projects that do not force them to give up IP rights IP Fees & F&A Basic Research (model 1) Sponsor receives non exclusive royalty free license (non commercial) IP Fee none F&A Federally Negotiated Rate 55% Expanding Technologies (model 2) Sponsor receives exclusive license for 5 years IP Fee Minimum of 10% or $5,000 F&A Uncapped Rate 64.75% Work for Hire (model 3) IP Assignment to Sponsor IP Fee Minimum of 25% and $10,000 F&A Uncapped Rate 64.75% 11

32 Net IP Fee Distribution Procedures The University will in its discretion distribute Net Proceeds* on an equitable basis: o 1/3 rd to the department or administrative unit(s) from which the underlying Purdue Contract originated, with due consideration of appropriate requests for sub allocations to particular centers and research units. o 1/3 rd to the Trask Fund to support its research and development programs. o 1/3 rd to the Principal Investigator(s) *25% of the fee retained to covers costs of processing contracts with special IP terms and conditions Current Lifecycle Model Discovery Funding Current IP Decisions Past IP Decisions SPS Pre Award SPS Contracting SPS Post Award (PI Education, Multi Issue Management) OTC Commercialization Business Development Rainmakers Faculty Suresh Garimella OCCGP Tomas Diaz de la Rubia Tom Verhoeven Dan Delaurentis Dan Hasler Deans/Associate Deans for Research Many Others Strategic Alliances/Partnerships o Comprehensive o Enduring o Physical Presence Master Agreements The Queue Basic Research Testing Work for Hire/Expanding Technologies Contracts involving $ coming into Purdue 12
