About the University

We're one of the top 10 universities in the nation in licensing and optioning research to industry. Our university was founded with a mission: to create economic, societal and intellectual prosperity for the people of North Carolina and the United States. Our Campaign will empower us to deliver on and exceed that mission — today, tomorrow and far into the future. The Office of Technology Commercialization and New Ventures supports NC State’s research enterprise by facilitating the commercialization of university research discoveries by the private sector to support economic growth and enable societal well-being.
