The bridge between knowledge and impact.
We connect the research produced at UFRRJ to industry, government and society — protecting inventions, licensing technologies and cultivating an innovation culture across 12 institutes and 115 years of rural history.
Before you publish, submit. The NIT conducts patentability analysis, drafts filings, follows the INPI and makes sure your name stays indexed to the invention — without slowing your paper down.
- Novelty & inventive step analysis
- INPI filing and international (PCT) protection
- Royalty split: 1/3 to the inventor
