Licensing agreements
On average, we close about 80 licensing agreements covering patented technologies with future-oriented companies. We have already concluded around 2,800 exploitation contracts. Among our industry partners are German and European companies as well as companies from the US, Japan, and other countries.
The nature and extent of the licenses are as varied as the payment modalities. They range from upfront payments and sales-based royalties to additional milestone payments (e. g. in the case of drug development) and annual minimum license fees. At present, several potential future blockbusters are in development at our industry partners’ sites. Moreover, many products, which are based on an MPG technology, such as medications, medicinal diagnostic devices, microscopes, biotechnological methods and processes, new materials, sensors, components and software are already on the market.
