The online express licensing service makes nearly 60 inventions available to businesses for licensing.
NSWC Crane says it is the first federal laboratory in the Naval Sea Systems Command to offer express licensing. Interested businesses can now shop the base’s patent portfolio and apply for a patent license agreement.
"The goal of express licensing is to streamline the licensing application process and showcase patents with pre-negotiated terms to make the process faster and easier for businesses," said Brooke Pyne, manager of NSWC Crane’s Technology Transfer Program.
The express licensing service is part of a partnership with Montana-based TechLink. You learn more about the technologies being offered through the service by clicking here.
