AVX is a nonprofit cooperative exchange connecting high-value talent with early startups backed with research and IP from leading research universities across the United States. We aim to bring the discoveries of the world’s preeminent researchers to market by helping find exceptional co-founders.
2016 was the first time on record where university technology transfer offices generated more revenue from startups than “traditional” licensing. This trend has developed over many years as traditional industry partners have increasingly shifted their research and development budgets toward external partnerships with startups that are built for R&D and early commercialization.
Many top institutions now focus on spotlighting their best innovations to their best entrepreneurs.
We work with vetted entrepreneurs to eliminate mismatches that could halt the commercialization process. For example, a cybersecurity entrepreneur is a poor fit for a startup focused on developing a new biologic drug. By collectively pooling data and guiding sensible suggestions, AVX makes it easier for entrepreneurs to discover the correct startups to help.
Another typical challenge is that it is hard to find enough “fundable” entrepreneurs and opportunities in any one geographic location. By exposing entrepreneurs to early startups, AVX helps reduce this bottleneck by promoting virtual partnerships and finding connectors who can uncover undiscovered local talent.
University tech transfer offices are dynamic, with activity ranging from processing disclosures, managing accelerator partnerships, and optimizing deal terms. AVX's priority is connecting talent to the emerging startups launching from these TTOs.
