University-Industry Liaison Office (UILO)

We collaborate with researchers to understand their research, goals and priorities; develop strategies to maximize the impact of UBC research; and build lasting relationships with industry and other technology receptors. The Sponsored-Research-Group establishes the contractual arrangements that allow >2500 partnerships each year between UBC researchers and industry, government and non-profit organizations.
The Technology-Transfer-Group translates research outputs, including patentable inventions, proprietary-materials, research-tools, software and other innovations, out of the academy for the betterment of society.
