encourages technological innovations, creations, and inventions by researchers and faculty members.
Pursuant to this, ISU-owned technologies, creations, and inventions when granted rights under existing
intellectual property regimes, shall be made available for public use consistent with ISU’s mandate to
transfer and disseminate appropriate technologies, except for valid reasons that would prevent such
case. In all cases, public access to ISU intellectual property rights is subject to rights of innovators,
creators and inventors.
