The formation of MSU Technologies (MSUT) represents an important step in the evolution of intellectual property management and technology commercialization at Michigan State University (MSU) and comes at a critical time, as MSU continues to play an increasing role in the effort to diversify and improve the Michigan economy. While we work to transfer a wide range of MSU intellectual property to the marketplace, we also hope to provide MSU researchers with feedback from the marketplace that will assist them in performing research of high quality and high impact.
