Frontier IP, which specialises in commercialising university intellectual property, announced that portfolio company Tarsis Technology (“Tarsis”), a spin out from the University of Cambridge, has entered into a collaboration agreement with one of the world’s leading manufacturers of crop-protection products (the “Company”).
The collaboration will research the use of Tarsis’ patent-pending technology to deliver chemical pesticides and fungicides in a more precise and controlled way.
Tarsis was incorporated to develop and commercialise technology created by Dr David Fairen-Jimenez, a Royal Society University Research Fellow and University Lecturer, and his research team at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology at the University of Cambridge. The technology is based on particles called metal-organic frameworks and has potential for a wide range of industrial applications.
