Researchers at the University of Iowa Technology Institute have invented and matured technologies that have been transferred to the commercial sector. In some cases, a private venture obtains the exclusive license for the technology to continue development and use. In other cases, companies sponsor research in ITI labs on particular technologies. The mission at ITI is to focus research in ways that benefit society. Tech transfer demonstrates that our research secures societal, if not tangible, return on investment for ITI's sponsors and supporters.
