Technology & Industry Alliance
| The office of Technology & Industry Alliances (TIA) was established to manage the intellectual property developed during UCSB research (including out-licensing) and to manage the many agreements with industry partners that support research collaborations, including research agreements, material transfer agreements, non-disclosure agreements and memorandums of understanding. TIA's ability to negotiate both licensing and research agreements eliminates the need for corporate partners to progress through multiple university offices and gives TIA the opportunity to build an in-depth understanding of the needs of our industry partners.
