Help us empower university inventors to form spinouts from their research.
Fundraising for a startup today is much quicker and the terms are much fairer than they used to be. The proliferation of the YC SAFE, AngelList benchmarks, and blog posts have helped define what a fair deal looks like.
Entrepreneurial researchers and students at universities who form spinouts aimed at commercialising their inventions are not so fortunate . There is no openly accessible database of key spinout deal terms per university. This creates an information asymmetry between founders and universities during negotiations, which leads to uniformly poor outcomes for founders across the globe.
