Strategies to Promote Your Invention

Online Platforms and Tech Scout Engagement 

To ensure your invention achieves commercial success, TT&C has developed strategies to effectively disseminate information. Our primary approach includes listing SMU inventions on public platforms, such as Wellspring’s Flintbox. This site not only showcases inventions but also syndicates content to the AUTM Innovation Marketplace (AIM). 

AIM is a leading platform that features over 31,000 technologies from universities, making it the largest portal of its type for technology licensing. Annually, it attracts over two million page views from industry technology scouts and researchers seeking collaboration opportunities. This exposure is crucial for connecting with potential licensors and partners.  [From https://autm.net/surveys-and-tools/databases/autm-innovation-marketplace

Furthermore, TT&C will actively engage with Business Development Licensing Managers from companies that are well-suited to your invention's unique capabilities. By directly reaching out to these key industry players, we aim to foster partnerships that can accelerate the development and commercialization of your technology.
