For Universities

Intellectual Property

We are interested in assessing your current and future portfolio of intellectual property for the purpose of long term investment. Gunston facilitates the licensing of the technology and builds the teams that will turn those patents into solutions at a readiness level necessary for corporate exploitation.

Early Stage Companies

We want to work with you to identify early stage companies in your ecosystem, for evaluation for investment that doesn't stop at the writing of a check. Our specialty is early stage, but we are not limited to only those opportunities that fit our sponsor's needs. If it can change the world and make significant money, we are interested.

Key Benefits

Open Opportunities for University Students
