Product and Process Co-Development
Collaborative, transparent partnership
Our scientists work closely with your team to design a program tailored to achieve your specific goals.
Favorable IP terms
Clients receive an exclusive license to IP generated through the program that is critical to manufacturing and selling the product. Each party owns and controls the use of their own background IP.
Flexible value share
We structure most partnerships to earn R&D fees at or below the costs we incur, and downstream value share if you successfully commercialize the product we help develop
