You’re a Research Institute — and your IP sits in a drawer.


The Situation
The breakthroughs are real.
Patents. Protocols. Models that could reshape an industry.
But the papers are gathering dust.
The tech transfer office is overwhelmed.
And the startups built on your work?
They’re often missing the point — or the science.
You’ve got knowledge.
What you need is interface.
Because insight without application isn’t innovation.
It’s inertia.
What if...
What if your research had a venture path — without losing ownership?
At ShoreLabs, we work with institutes, labs, and academic accelerators to extract venture potential from scientific breakthroughs — with structure, not speculation.
We don’t dilute your IP. We don’t ask you to become entrepreneurs.
We operationalize your edge — ethically, efficiently, and with real-world context.
This isn’t tech transfer. It’s translational design.
How it works
You bring the science — discoveries, prototypes,models, data.
We bring the scaffolding to explore:
- Venture paths: different market-fit hypotheses from asingle research base
- User-layer prototypes: early front-ends, simulations,or low-code MVPs
- Governance structures: foundation, spin-out, DAO, orlicensing logic
- Capital strategy: grant stacking, philanthropic runway,venture-readiness
- Narrative translation: from white paper to funder deckto pilot pitch
We work in sprints — light, lean, co-owned.
No loss of control. No promise of commercialization at all costs.
Just clean pathways from idea to implementation.
What it Feels Like
Suddenly, your work is in motion.
Researchers feel energized — not extracted.
Stakeholders see traction — not just citations.
New forms of capital, collaboration, and experimentation become visible — and viable.
Your institution doesn’t just generate knowledge.
It helps the world use it.
Why This Matters
Because climate, health, and societal resilience won’t be solved by papers alone.
Because researchers deserve a way to test application — without selling out.
Because the edge of academia is often the front line of the future.
But only if it translates.
Unlock
the Future.
The takeaway?
You don’t need to commercialize everything.
But for the work that could shape systems, ShoreLabs helps make it real — without compromising mission, rigor, or ownership.
