Impress your Inventors.

Companies expect your office to provide an up-to-date catalog so they can engage with your office. Inventors want confidence that you’ve gone the extra mile for them. Alumni want to feel like they are part of a strong legacy. Flintbox does that.

Designed for Your Audience

We collaborated with Tech Scouts to understand how they shop for opportunities. We interviewed AUTM & ASTP members, our own corporate clients, faculty, and others. We listened to what they wanted to see and how they wanted to see it.

The result is Flintbox’s new design: A modern, online system that provides clear and consistent summaries of technologies, startups, and faculty expertise.

Plus, it’s easy to use. Follow a suggested template to organize your message across technologies or customize your own. It’s your choice.

Best of all, we put your technologies in front of the largest external audience. With over 600 institutions contributing opportunities, Tech Scouts rely on Flintbox as a critical part of finding academic partners.
