History
Yissum was founded in 1964 to protect and market the Hebrew University's intellectual property. Since its inception, Yissum has founded more than 245 start-up companies, over 100 of which are still active in 2020, registered over 11,500 patents globally, and licensed over 1,140 technologies. Yissum’s business partners span the globe and include companies such as Boston Scientific, ICL, Merck and many more.
In Israel, technology transfer entities are organized as companies, unlike the United States. In the United States technology transfer operations only began after the Bayh–Dole Act in 1982. Yissum is a for-profit company which is fully owned by the Hebrew University which is a not-for-profit entity. This makes Yissum a non-typical entity.
