Corporate R&DAn innovative program for companies to retain intellectual property

Our Partners

Imagine that a group of colleges and universities decide to make their resources available to companies for short and medium term research without the usual arguments over intellectual property. Imagine a new relationship between business and academia in which companies can enhance their development goals while gaining access to university expertise and student talent. RIT’s new Corporate R&D program is the first step!

By joining this program our corporate partners will gain access to academic research, at less cost than internal R&D, while still maintaining control of intellectual property. The program also allows businesses to utilize RIT students many of whom may become future employees.
