    Brief

    This opportunity seeks qualified organizations to manage and commercialize intellectual property assets generated by UKRI-funded Medical Research Council (MRC) projects. The role involves identifying, protecting, and bringing to market innovations, discoveries, and technologies developed through medical research. Successful applicants will handle IP portfolio management, licensing negotiations, commercialization strategy, and stakeholder engagement to maximize the impact and return on investment of publicly-funded research. This is designed to bridge the gap between research outputs and real-world applications, benefiting both the scientific community and the public through faster innovation adoption.
