A nutty professor could become the happiest millionaire with the help of BTG. The company acquires patent rights to new technologies and licenses them to manufacturers around the world. With a focus on life sciences and high technology, it hunts down inventions from universities, corporations, research institutions, and private inventors in more than 30 countries. In addition, BTG helps raise venture capital for start-up businesses and creates ventures (often through partnerships) to exploit new technologies.
