UK IPO Knowledge Asset Management Hub to help universities turn research into revenue

The UK Intellectual Property Office has launched a new Knowledge Asset Management Hub to help universities, research organisations and their business partners better identify, protect and commercialise intellectual property and wider knowledge assets. 

The Hub brings together practical guidance for institutional IP strategy, project-level risk and opportunity management, patent data analysis, due diligence, and knowledge asset management. 

For universities, the resource offers a shared foundation for strengthening IP policies, supporting spin-outs, improving licensing decisions and ensuring research reaches wider markets.

For businesses, it should make collaboration with the research base easier by encouraging clearer early-stage decisions on ownership, protection and commercial pathways. 

Explore the Knowledge Asset Management Hub to see how it could strengthen your approach to IP.

Strengthening IP strategy is only half the equation - finding the right partner to commercialise it is the other half. Signup to konfer to turn that strategy into a live opportunity.
