Certain types of university intellectual property can sometimes prove difficult to commercialise through traditional routes, usually because it is at an early stage of development, or because it presents enough uncertainty for companies to risk an investment.
University Technology’s Easy Access portal offers access to this type of intellectual property at no cost, to enable companies to evaluate it and put it to use quickly, with reduced risk.
Easy Access uses quick and simple licence agreements to fast-track the transfer of knowledge and expertise from Scotland’s universities to industry, so that these technologies may be developed for the benefit of the economy and society.
Through this initiative, our aim is to make it easier for Scottish universities and industry to work together and build strong, long-term relationships with industry partners

It's for anyone looking for the latest papers published in International scholarly literature. A free service, customized versions with added functionality are available for li...
The technology is a MEMS package design methodology providing a High Barrier to vapour (near hermetic)using existing wafer level photolithography and LIGA processes common in MEMS, MOEMS and RF-MEMS design. Using a novel conducting arrangement, 3D interconnects or through-cap connection is possible ...
This catalyst-based production process enables the manufacture of renewable and biodegradable commodity plastics from renewable sources, eliminating the use of petrochemical-based raw materials.
Heriot-Watt has patent pending for a reinforced concrete condition monitoring system providing 'real-time' information on water, hydration, ionic movement and temperature in the concrete cover-zone. The self powered system informs timely maintenance interventions against corrosion, spalling etc. in ...
The optimisation and exploitation of compound semiconductors will lead to more efficient lighting, more reliable electric grids, efficient power supplies and ultra-efficient solar cells. This will reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and therefore lower greenhouse gas emissions. Other applications...
