Prior to approaching a company to discuss a research project or share an idea you feel the company may be interested in commercializing,  download the form and forward to the company with the following instructions:

  2. Fill in the company’s information for notice purposes in Section 9.
  3. Have an authorized signatory sign and date the document.
  4. Return a partially executed PDF to stephen.snider@utoledo.edu.* 

*It is very important to send the partially executed PDF agreement to Mr. Snider as UToledo employees are not authorized to sign agreements on their own behalf.
