Policy Excerpts

2009 Policy

NCSU Patent and Tangible Research Policy (2009)

NET REVENUE shall be distributed as follows:

  • 40% to INVENTORS
  • 5% to the College (to be used for activities that support innovation and entrepreneurship)
  • 5% to the Department/Unit (to be used for activities that support innovation and entrepreneurship)
  • 50% to the PATENT TRUST FUND

2003 Policy

NCSU Royalty Sharing (2003)

For distributions of any Gross Revenue that is generated as a result of sales by licensees or any "trigger event" in a license or option agreement (such as up front fees, milestone payments, minimum royalty payments, and the like) where the sales or the trigger event occurred on or after July 1, 2002, the inventors' share of Gross Revenue is 40%, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the University and the inventor(s).

1997 Policy

NCSU Patent Procedures (1997)

The gross royalty revenues (net amount received by the University if there is a specific agreement in a grant or contract with a sponsor) generated by a patent or invention shall be the basis upon which the inventor's royalty is calculated. Unless otherwise agreed, the inventor's share of royalty revenues shall be 25% of the gross revenue.

Further, when 10% of annual gross revenue from a specific license agreement equals or exceeds $1,000, that amount shall be distributed to the laboratory which generated the invention which is the subject of the license agreement; provided, however, that the maximum annual distribution under this provision shall not exceed $50,000.

To the extent practicable and consistent with State and University budget policies, the remaining revenue received by the University on account of an invention will first be applied to reimburse the University for expenses incurred by it in obtaining and maintaining patents and/or in marketing, licensing and defending patents or licensable inventions and the remainder will be dedicated to research purposes that may include research in the inventor's department or unit, if approved by the Chancellor upon recommendation of the Intellectual Property Committee.

1989 Policy

NCSU Patent & Copyright Procedures (1989)

The gross royalty revenues (net amount received by the University if there is a specific agreement in a grant or contract with a sponsor) generated by a patent or invention shall be the basis upon which the inventor's royalty is calculated. Unless otherwise agreed, the inventor's share of royalty revenues shall be 25% of the gross revenue.
