TechLink – Veterans Administration pushing medical research and inventions to private sector

Hundreds of VA inventions available through license agreements

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs announced on Monday a new effort to improve public health by pushing its research and inventions into commercial markets.

Dr. John Kaplan, director of the VA Technology Transfer Program, said that in January the VA had engaged TechLink, a non-profit partnership intermediary, for marketing and licensing services that see government research and inventions transferred to businesses.
