Core Partners
We are partnered with over 100 leading universities, research institutions, accelerators, and university venture funds across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Israel, and Singapore.
We specialize in understanding the challenges in commercializing core technologies. We bring together our partner institutions’ tech transfer offices and through their experience and insights, we share best practices and other valuable programs. Our university partners partake in benefits such as:
Our partners share in the fund’s profit based on the performance of investments made in the institutions’ startup companies.
OUP interacts with researchers about their startups and potential capital for their commercial endeavors. We help match scientists, technologists, or entrepreneurs looking for experienced advisers through our network of serial entrepreneurs.
A blinded and aggregated database of license terms from university startup licenses for use as comparables by our university partners to accelerate the negotiation with fair market value terms.
An annual get-together of the directors and senior leaders at our Core Partner institutions for deep collaboration and learning.
An opportunity for licensing professionals from our Core Partners to spend two days in the OUP offices as we evaluate investment opportunities and work with our portfolio companies. The program offers education, exposure, and insight into venture capital operations.
A variety of on-campus venture education seminars to our partner institution licensing officers and faculty.
OUP’s webinars topics include market intelligence on certain industry sectors from the viewpoint of investors and entrepreneurs and topical discussions on university startup practices and programs.
Our investment team offers informal VC office hours to our partner institutions. To schedule a time for your institution's startups to meet via video conference with a member of our tech or life science team, please contact Natasha Azar at nazar@oup.vc.
