5 OUR TRANSACTIONAL METRICS 300+ Federal Labs ~50% THE STORY IS: CRADAs ~50% increase in the past 12 years averaging 3,500 new agreements per year Patents Issued ~20-30% increase since 2011 averaging 2,000 per year Licenses (inventions) ~500 per year; Anomaly that it has flattened out? Royalties - $194M Up 35% since 2011; Mostly pharma/medical BUT royalties is NOT the goal! Ref. Federal Laboratory Technology Transfer FY 2014 Summary Report to the President and the Congress, October 16 ~20-30% ~35% CRADAs Issued Patents Licenses Royalties ~500 year (in $10,000s) Up ~35%
