Under the Research Collaboration Agreement (RCA) model, A*STAR and Collaborators will jointly develop and generate new Intellectual Property (IP). Project foreground IP (FIP) that is jointly developed will be jointly owned according to intellectual input. A*ccelerate Technologies, who is the commercialization arm for A*STAR, will assist with the arrangement of Licensing Agreement, if required.
Collaborators may choose to provide cash and/or in-kind contributions in the form of consumables, equipment, and manpower. A*STAR may also contribute in-kind contributions such as equipment and manpower, where the total contributions from A*STAR will be equivalent to the cost of the project contributed by the collaborators.
