O nás

The University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice participates in a fundamental measure in the development of the education, the exploration and the development, in making quality enterprise, ecological and cultural image of the society not only in the south of Bohemia, but also in contiguous across border regions. Besides its main activities, i.e. providing the education and the implementation of the research, the university also becomes the source of information and new knowledge.

Although the University of South Bohemia is mostly specialized in a basic research, recently it has been aiming at strengthening and improving the co-operation with an enterprise environment and at the transfer of the results of the research, development and creative activities into practice with the aim to get a stable position in the field of the commercial co-operation.

A long-term support of the transfer of results of the research and the development into practice belongs among the strategic priorities of the university. A specialized department is an important link in this process.

For this reason in 2012 The Technology Transfer Office, which serves to all the faculties and independent departments of the university and whose role is to join the world of research with the commercial sphere, came into being.

The office is also a contact place for firms which are interested in a co-operation with the university in the field of research and development.

Our priorities:

• The development of relations at the level of individual faculties and institutions
• The building the user-friendly process of transfer of technologies towards the commercial sphere.
• The active promotion and protection of intellectual property of the university and searching for possibilities of use
• The holding of the licence talks from the beginning to the end
• The identification of problems and the removal of barriers between the academic workers and the commercial sphere
• The support of business
• The active support in foundation of spin-off and start-up firms

Detailed information can be found in the Academic Guide, which was created to provide a basic orientation in the process of protecting intellectual property and in the management of intangible goods within the university.
