UWS Inventors

UWS Innovation facilitates the translation of UWS research out into the community.  It achieves this through protecting Intellectual Property and closing commercialisation deals.

This all starts with research and that spark of a great idea that turns into an invention.  When this happens for you please let UWS Innovation know about it. Remember that if you make your idea public it can't be protected by patent.
