Assessment of project fundability

Intellectual Property Readiness Level (IPRL)

IPRL evaluates the readiness level of the intellectual property (IP) you create during your project.

Note: We highly recommend contacting your local Technology Transfer Office (TTO) if you believe your research project will develop any IP. If your project has no prospect of IP or commercialisation, you don't need to assess IPRL.

IPRL levels

Select the level that best describes your project to read what it means.

From seed to harvest

Level 1 is a seed: an early idea. Level 9 is the harvest: fully proven and in place. Pick a level to see what it means.
