POPULARITY
Many commercial products are derived from NASA technology and making NASA technology available to the public continues to be a priority.
Did you know that NASA has patented inventions ready for you to license and commercialize? On this episode of the podcast, I am talking with Dan Lockney. I'm excited about this episode because Dan and I talk about a fantastic program from NASA for technology companies. Dan is the Technology Transfer Program Executive at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC. He is responsible for managing NASA's intellectual property and the transfer of NASA technology to promote the commercialization and public availability of NASA's patented inventions. Dan and I discuss how NASA's Technology Transfer Program operates and the types of companies that can license the technology. Here's a small spoiler: any size of company can license the technology – from startups to large corporations. And, you will be surprised at the cost of the license! Dan shares information about the motivation behind the Technology Transfer Program. He also discusses some of his favorite inventions that have been successfully commercialized. Why is this program exciting to me? As you may know, as a Patent Strategist I work with tech companies every day regarding patents and inventions. This Technology Transfer Program is a great opportunity to license patented NASA technology to launch a business or a new product. I encourage you to listen to this episode and see if the Technology Transfer Program is a good option for your business. “Most of the technology in the Technology Transfer Program is outside of the aerospace area. Example technologies include medical devices, public transportation, consumer goods, and safety equipment.” – Daniel Lockney Today on the Tech Leader Talk podcast: - How does the NASA Technology Transfer Program work - Program success stories - The motivation behind the Technology Transfer Program - Types of technologies contained in the patented inventions - How a team of NASA engineers designed a new low-cost ventilator in response to the Covid outbreak Resources: Spinoff publication: https://spinoff.nasa.gov/ NASA Technology Transfer Program: https://technology.nasa.gov/ NASA Spinoff temperature-regulating mugs: https://burnoutmugs.com/ Book: Shop Class as Soulcraft by Matthew Crawford - https://www.amazon.com/Shop-Class-Soulcraft-Inquiry-Value/dp/0143117467 Connect with Daniel Lockney: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-lockney-bb5316a8/ Website: https://technology.nasa.gov/network Thanks for listening!

NASA's premier annual publication, Spinoff, features annually some of the successfully commercialized NASA technologies.
Since the birth of NASA, one thing has been clear. The more they create technologies for space, the more ways those technologies can be used to help people here on Earth.

NASA has a publication called “Spinoff” that highlights many types of transferred technologies that benefit life on Earth in the form of commercial products. NASA recently published a new edition of the Spinoff publication. It has dozens of stories describing businesses that have successfully launched products based on technology licensed from NASA. There's a link to the Spinoff publication below. Why is this program exciting to me? As you may know, as a Patent Strategist I work with tech companies every day regarding patents and inventions.

Each year, NASA creates hundreds of new inventions. And through technology transfer, many of these inventions become part of our everyday lives.
In this episode, we sit down for two conversations with leaders from NASA. Dan Lockney, head of Technology Transfer, talks about how NASA's R&D work produces spin-off technologies that drive private industry innovation. Then, we talk with Paul Stackhouse, a Senior Research Scientist, who leads clean energy data initiatives that are helping utility-scale solar developers site projects, as well as building efficiencies. Presented by NC Sustainable Energy Association. Created and hosted by Ben Stockdale and Jarvis Arrington.
This NASA technology transfer literally stops tall towers from shaking in their tracks.
Through technology transfer, many NASA inventions become part of our everyday lives.

This week on First Things First, I sit down to chat with Dan Lockney, the Technology Transfer Program Executive at NASA to talk about one of the most important reasons why the US Government chooses to invest so much in the space program: the technological advancements that are passed down to the civilian sector. From aluminum alloys, to Japanese ‘Kawaii’ cute-culture, to the Roomba, your daily life – no matter what country you’re from – is impacted by NASA in many more ways than you’d expect. We talk about how many enterprises, even your own, might be able to benefit from the latest and greatest technology that hasn’t hit the market yet.
