D. Glass Associates, Inc.

Licensing, Technology Transfer and Patent Management

D. Glass Associates, Inc. (DGA) offers expert assistance to biotechnology and medical device companies and to academic institutions in the management of many aspects of the patent and licensing process.

Small to midsize companies (including "virtual" companies) can often benefit from the outsourcing of many functions relating to academic relations and in-licensing, certain aspects of business development and out-licensing, and patent management. DGA has extensive experience dealing with the major universities and academic medical centers in the Boston area, as well as elsewhere in the U.S. In particular, patent and licensing activities are often among the easiest corporate functions for small to midsize biotech or device companies to outsource, and DGA can provide this service more cost-effectively than delegating the tasks to outside patent counsel.

D. Glass Associates can assist academic institutions (universities, medical centers and research institutions) that are not large enough to maintain full-time tech transfer staff, by handling many tech transfer functions on a part-time basis. We can also help licensing offices that are temporarily short-handed due to staff turnover, maternity/paternity leave, etc. in assessing, markeing and licensing inventions and in negotiating a variety of tech transfer agreements.

Glass, Ph.D., president of DGA, has almost 25 years experience in various sectors of biotechnology, and ten years experience managing patent and licensing activities at a major U.S. teaching hospital. Dr. Glass is currently handlling technology transfer on a part-time basis for two Harvard-affiliated institutions, McLean Hospital and the Joslin Diabetes Center, in addition to numerous other technology transfer consulting activities.
