Network for research valorisation

Netval is a recognised association that today brings together 65 universities, 16 PROs, 16 IRCCS and 7 other members. Founded in 2002 as an informal network between universities, Netval became an association in 2007 and opened its doors to non-university members.

Its mission is the valorisation of public research, also and above all through the creation of a community of professional TTO managers (more than 400 in 20 years).
