Adaptiiv Medical Technologies

A Dal research spinoff company

When the idea that became Adaptiiv was in its infancy, OCIE provided early and essential support in the form of resources to establish proof-of-concept, to define intellectual property, and to locate partners for commercialization. From the point-of-view of the licensee, OCIE was both flexible and collaborative, allowing the spin-out to leverage valuable IP and to move forward rapidly, without introducing barriers.
