DEVELOPED AND IMPLEMENTED THE MECHANISM OF TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION
IN THE INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS OF NAS OF UKRAINE.

Formalization of relations between research scientists and the Institute.

All employees of the Institute of Physics of NAS of Ukraine that take part in conducting of research and development works (R&D works), research and engineering works (R&E works), research and technical and research and technological works are obliged according to the Ukrainian law to sign with the Institute the following treaties:

According to “Normative acts on issues in intellectual property protection and technology transfer” of NAS of Ukraine, patent research and documents based on it (report and patent form) are component parts of R&E and R&D works, results of which have applied relevance.

Patent research is conducted by employees of the Institute’s scientific departments with methodological assistance of TT2ID employees.

In institutions activity of which fully or partially is funded by the government patent research is conducted under DSSU 3575-97 «Patent research. Basic provisions and procedure» and DSSU 3574-97 «Patent form. Basic provisions. Preparation and drawing up procedure».

Procedure of applying of innovative proposal for protection of official intellectual property (patent, know-how, trade secret). (see diagram)

Use of created official IPO

Created official IPO of the Institute can be used for own production output, provision of services or licensing.
Amount and procedure of remuneration to author for use of official IPO are determined in “Additional agreement to Agreement on official IPO and payment of remuneration for their use” according to «Regulation on creation, protection and use of intellectual property rights in the Institute of Physics of NAS of Ukraine and payment of remuneration to inventors».

Ukrainian law prescribes minimum remuneration amount for creator of IPO that protects his rights.
