The Transfer
Gap
Research organizations invest billions each year to develop new technologies and knowledge that they want to bring to the industry. Innovative companies want to use this knowledge for faster product development and new business building.
However, bringing valuable research and technologies to the industry is deeply challenging, especially finding relevant industry partners and creating spin-offs. Identifying suitable industry partners is resource-intensive and slow.
This leads to a point where suitable partners are oftentimes not found and many promising technologies get shelved or lapsed.

Why Our Company Search Is Different
Most scouting tools rely on job titles and firmographic filters. PatentPlus goes deeper — indexing what companies actually build, sell, and research.
Product & technology data, not just job titles
Traditional databases match companies by employee roles and industry codes. Our search is built on web-scraped, proprietary product and service data — so you find industry partners based on what they actually do, not who they employ. This surfaces hidden champions and relevant companies that job-title-based tools simply miss.
Identify the right contact persons
Finding the right company is only half the battle. Our platform also helps you identify relevant contact persons within each organization — from licensing managers and technology scouts to C-level decision-makers — so you can reach the right people directly and accelerate your transfer process.
