Technology Transfer

I believe that I am one lucky guy becuase I did my undergraduate degree in one of the finest universities in my state.The university comes under the affiliation of one of the top universities of Asia.Although not a government college it is one of the best private institutions in the state and has everything that a person doing his degree would want.It is equipped with great facilities and equipments to advance the knowledge of its students;the staff are competent and are well informed in the subjects they teach and the area they specialise in.

Education doesn't stop when you leave your high school after passing your board exams.It continues when you do your undergraduate; as a matter of fact, it is only the beginning since they provide the knowledge required for students to educate themselves further in the areas they are interested in,to carry on research and make this world a better place to live in.The inventions they consequently make can earn them a fortune.|This scheme is the same thing that Hebrew University of Jerusalem implements. This prestigious university does its Technology Transfer through the company called Yissum.

As the Technology Transfer Office and company of Hebrew University, Yissum is responsible for the marketing involved for inventions which are initiated by its researchers and students.This should not portray an image that they concentrate only in learning as the university (including the company)is the proud owner of a variety of intellectual properties and fields its pursues.To name a few of the technologies they uertake would be to list Medicine,nanotechnology,computer science,agriculture,security,nutrition,water and environmental technologies and space research.Because of this vast range of inventions, innovations and ideas that would be very useful not only to the university or the country where it can be found but also to the world, Yissum was founded with an aim to make all of these intellectual property become available for everyone’s use in the market. For over four decades of bringing real, trusted and useful science, it has already become one of the world’s largest earning companies with nearly a billion dollar worldwide annual sales! But they’re not only about profit because there Technology Transfer Opportunities have also helped those other smaller and more specific companies to do well in business. At present, Yissum continues to have strong business ties with Israel’s business communities and also in the international scene. Visit them at http://www.yissum.co.il to know more.
