New Ventures with Texas A&M: Start-ups, Spin-outs, and Research Commercialization

Updated: Apr 24, 2021

The New Ventures staff at Texas A&M works with researchers to create or spin-out companies. These companies center around new ideas or technologies produced within the university. The company then seeks funding from private investors to help connect the research to building a product.


Spin-outs are a way for Texas A&M to produce new products for the public and also create economic development for the community, State of Texas, and beyond.


Texas A&M Technology Commercialization supports the commercial development of research to enhance education, research, and public service missions, as well as to protect the academic freedom of faculty pursuing research.
