The Center for Technology Transfer and Commercialization (CTTC) provides professional technology commercialization services to the Vanderbilt community, so that we may optimize the flow of innovation to the marketplace and generate revenue that supports future research activities.
CTTC accomplishes this by serving as an efficient and effective conduit for the transfer of promising Vanderbilt intellectual property to industry; contributing to regional economic development by licensing locally and supporting new venture creation; and encouraging collaboration between academia and industry.
