Intellectual Property Management

National Principles

The National Principles of IP Management for Publicly Funded Research were developed by a working Party comprising: the Australia Research Council (ARC), the Australian Tertiary Institutions Commercial Companies Association (ATICCA), the Australian Vice-Chancellors' Committee (AVCC), the Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST), the Department of Industry, Science and Resources (DISR), IP Australia and the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC).

The National Principles of IP Management for Publicly Funded Research were developed to assist researchers, research managers and research institutions develop best practice in identifying protecting and managing IP, thus ensuring appropriate commercial outcomes from publicly funded research.

The intention of the National Principles is simply to improve the commercial outcomes from publicly funded research where a commercial outcome is appropriate.
