Technology Transfer and Commercialization (TT&C) works with faculty inventors to bridge the gap between academic discoveries and real-world applications.

We're the nonprofit technology commercialization arm of Southern Methodist University in the Dallas metroplex area. Our mission is to bridge the gap between academic discoveries and real-world applications to help improve quality of life. Our mandate is to protect and license the university's intellectual property. We also promote entrepreneurship through our Incubator program and sponsored events.
