Industrial Contracts
If your research will involve interactions with or funding from industry, or if you need research materials from labs outside Stanford or want to send research materials from Stanford, the Industrial Contracts Office (ICO) will help with the process. ICO negotiates and signs sponsored research, and related research agreements with industry, and material transfers with all types of entities. Industry clinical trial agreements are handled in the Research Management Group.
