Research at the Singapore Management University focuses on addressing societal challenges and generating impactful outcomes by integrating a global perspective within an Asian context, thereby effectively tackling research problems. The Knowledge Transfer and Commercialisation (KTC) unit within the Institute of Innovation & Entrepreneurship (IIE) plays a crucial role in managing intellectual property derived from this research and facilitating its commercialisation through licensing to industry or spin-offs, supported through translational research funding to researchers.
