Who We Are

The OTT at UCF began in 1989, and actively works to protect and bring UCF researchers’ ideas to market. Our expertise combines the disciplines of science, business, and law and we manage over 900 active intellectual property cases in patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Our team of professionals evaluates each Invention Disclosure submitted to the OTT. Based on the disclosed information and internal research, a customized intellectual property protection plan and commercialization strategy is designed for qualified technologies. Each technology is managed through the duration of its life cycle – from disclosure to deal – by the same licensing professional. Each licensing professional has a scientific area of expertise.
