Capability 02
Licensing structures that make commercialization possible.
Strong technology stalls without the right commercial architecture. We design and negotiate the agreements that allow it to reach the market.
Deal structures
How we structure relationships.
Every structure is built around a single question: what arrangement gives this technology the highest probability of real adoption?
- 01
Exclusive & field-of-use licenses
Rights scoped by market, geography or application so owners retain optionality while a commercial partner gains conviction.
- 02
Joint commercialization ventures
Shared entities where the technology owner contributes IP and we contribute go-to-market, capital access and execution.
- 03
Sublicensing and channel rights
Structures that let established distributors and integrators carry a technology into existing customer relationships.
- 04
Milestone and royalty economics
Consideration aligned to adoption — upfront, development milestones, running royalties and equity where appropriate.
Technology owners
Who we license from.
M45 Ventures works with owners who have built something genuinely differentiated and need a commercial counterparty rather than an advisor.
- Independent inventors and technical founders
- Corporate R&D groups with non-core assets
- Universities and research institutions
- Patent holders and IP portfolio owners
- National labs and government-funded programs
- Early-stage companies seeking market access
