Spin-offs
The better research, the better tech-transfer

Ceit main distinctive feature lies in its way of doing research. Thanks to its university origin and its continuous orientation towards solving the industry's problems and improving its competitiveness, research at Ceit is not understood without transfer.

From lab to market
From the beginning we focus research on the needs of the market for the benefit of society, which is the aim of our mission. We consider whether we can turn our tech into a Ceit spin-off or whether we can reach a licensing agreement with an existing company.
Tech-transfer is part of Ceit’s DNA. Ceit was constituted in 1982 only 7 years later the first Ceit patent was raised, and other seven years later, in 1996, the first Ceit spin-off was launched.
With 40 years of experience in innovation, a dedicated professional team, prestigious scientists, and proprietary breakthrough technologies, Ceit counts with an interesting value proposition for existing companies and for entrepreneurs and investors to promote and back the launch of spin-offs.
