Fusion IP owns the rights to 100% of the university-owned research generated at two of the UK's leading universities – The University of Sheffield and Cardiff University. These exclusive partnerships enable us to invest in some the world's most advanced and exciting science, turning world class research into business through the creation of a growing portfolio of companies, in fields as varied as drug discovery, alternative energy and engineering.
Delivering for shareholders
We own the rights to an amazing depth and quality of research and we aim to turn that into real value for our shareholders. Our combination of short, medium and long term investments minimises risk and offers the potential for significant value growth for our shareholders.
As shareholders in Fusion IP, our partner universities are rewarded and incentivised to ensure that their R&D spend is focused on generating world class IP and the academics are rewarded with shareholdings in the subsequent portfolio companies.
Partnering universities
In 2005, we signed an exclusive 10 year agreement with The University of Sheffield, one of the UK’s leading Russell Group universities to commercialise all of their owned medical IP.
In 2007 we signed a second exclusive 10 year agreement with Cardiff University, another of the UK’s leading Russell group universities, to commercialise all of their IP.
In July 2008 we signed a new expanded exclusive agreement with The University of Sheffield to commercialise all of their IP.
These partnerships allow everyone to play to their strengths – our university partners focus on creation and innovation, and we take care of commercialisation. At the point of cross-over we are well integrated with each university’s existing technology transfer team, ensuring that the commercialisation process is smooth and seamless.

Our IP Pipeline
Our exclusive relationships with The University of Sheffield and Cardiff University provide us with some of the UK’s most exceptional research and IP. Over the life of the agreements these institutions will be investing over £2billion into R&D over the next decade, R&D that we own the rights to commercialise.
In collaboration with University’s existing technology transfer operations, we identify emerging opportunities for investment. We then commercialise this IP either through the formation of spin-out companies or by licensing, in which we have majority equity participation. With both universities, we initially own 100% equity in the portfolio companies we establish and allocate an appropriate percentage to the academics involved on incorporation.
The Fusion IP Model
The Fusion IP model is to sign long term exclusive partnership agreements with top 10 research intensive universities for 100% of their future IP pipelines and the right to 100% of the equity in the resultant spin-out companies on incorporation. We then align the interests of the academic by giving then a significant shareholding the spin-out company.
This gives us a powerful combination of high quality IP from our university partners, our own commercial expertise and start-up funding, and third party investment from investors such as Finance Wales enables us to turn world class research into business.
Creating successful business from world class IP relies on our complementary relationships with three key partners. Two of them are universities recognised globally for the quality of their research and development, the other is a world-renowned investor who works exclusively in future technologies.
Together, we bring innovation and IP to life.
The University of Sheffield is recognised as one of the UK's leading universities, and excels in scientific and technological research and development.
Cardiff University is recognised in independent government assessments as one of Britain's leading teaching and research universities.
Finance Wales provides commercial funding to small and medium-sized businesses throughout Wales, enabling them to realise their growth potential for innovation and growth. Managing funds of more than £100 million, the company has invested £75 million in more than 1600 Wales-based SMEs which has leveraged an additional £180 million private sector investment.
