Our expertise

The work between
invention and adoption.

Commercial and operational preparation for robotics, autonomous systems and selected advanced technologies. Each area below can be commissioned as a focused assignment or combined where the opportunity calls for it.

01

A commercial route
for the technology.

We help technology owners and commercialization teams define applications, partner requirements and the work needed to bring a proposition to market.

The starting point may be a university spinout, a growth-stage company or an established business entering a new application or geography.

The contribution

An application and commercialization assessment, partner-capability requirements and a focused development workplan.

02

Licensing that supports
commercial ambition.

We help technology owners, prospective licensees and technology-transfer offices develop commercial licensing strategies for technology, software and know-how.

The work can cover partner fit, permitted uses, exclusivity, fees and royalties, development commitments and ongoing commercial administration.

Legal advice and agreement drafting remain with qualified counsel.

The contribution

A licensing strategy, commercial negotiation brief or licence-administration plan—commissioned independently or as part of a wider transfer.

03

Make the transfer workable

A technology transfer has to work beyond the licence. We examine the know-how, software and data access, support and receiving organization’s ability to put the technology into use.

The contribution

A transfer-readiness assessment that connects partner capability, continuity requirements and the questions for legal and technical review.

04

Prepare the pilot or deployment

We help owners and operators define the decision a pilot must inform, the evidence it must produce and the integration, service and operating arrangements required.

Task-specific technical and safety validation remains with qualified professionals.

The contribution

A decision brief and preparation workplan: the conditions to resolve before committing, with responsibilities and the next stage of work.

Technology Transfer Readiness Review

For a promising application, prospective partner or approaching transfer decision, the review assesses what needs to be in place before the transfer proceeds. Further preparation or implementation support can be agreed where needed.

Agreeing the assignment

Technology owners, investors, integrators and advisers can commission a defined commercialization, licensing, transfer or deployment-preparation work package. We agree the scope, deliverables, responsibilities and specialist input before work begins.
