THE OPEN DATABASE FOR UNIVERSITY SPINOUTS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Help us empower university inventors to form spinouts from their research.

WHY NOW?

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.

Spinout.fyi seeks to empower university inventors to form spinouts from their
research. We host the largest open dataset on spinout deal terms that is
crowdsourced from hundreds of spinouts around the world. This dataset brings
transparency for future founders and is used by policymakers, universities,
investors and funders to revamp the spinout playbook.

Instead of benefiting from institutional support, researchers attempting to
start a company find themselves mired in bureaucracy. Negotiations over
intellectual property rights with university technology transfer offices, or
TTOs, can be one-way, opaque and often adversarial.
