Spin-outs based on university research involve turning academic IP into a commercial company. In England this work covers identifying and protecting IP, negotiating assignment of IP rights to the spin-out, drafting founder shareholder agreements, setting up share structures, and negotiating licenses to the university or to investors; advising on corporate governance, funding rounds, and regulatory/compliance issues; and guiding through company formation, contracts with researchers, and ongoing IP management. A solicitor coordinates with the university technology transfer office, investors, and potential customers to secure the venture's rights and obligations.
