The Office of Intellectual Property Administration at WSU (OIPA) is here to support our staff and researchers as they seek to disclose, protect, and commercialize the innovations flowing from their work.
On this site, we will guide you through the process of properly disclosing innovations, explain how we determine if your research can be protected, and if appropriate, help you understand how it might be licensed or spun out as a new company. We’ll also connect you with resources related to university policy and building your entrepreneurial skills.
