A clear starting point.

A guide to an initial discussion. The scope and sequence depend on the opportunity.

  1. 01

    Introduce your opportunity

    Share your company, technology interest and intended market.

  2. 02

    Explore the fit

    Discuss the application, commercial scope and information needed for evaluation.

  3. 03

    Agree the next steps

    Consider confidentiality arrangements where appropriate, then discuss technical and commercial details.

Before we talk.

What should I include in my inquiry?

Your company name, country, area of interest and intended commercial market help establish the context. A short, non-confidential overview is enough to begin.

Can I request technical information?

Yes. Detailed information is available on request and, where appropriate, under a confidentiality agreement. The information that can be shared depends on the technology and the inquiry.

Is an exclusive license possible?

Exclusivity is one of the structures that may be considered. Territory, application, capability and performance obligations would need to be discussed. No rights are granted by submitting an inquiry.

Should I send confidential material?

Please do not include confidential technical material in an initial email. Discuss suitable confidentiality arrangements and a sharing method first.
