S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 994 2011-2012 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E (PREFILED) January 5, 2011 ___________ Introduced by Sen. KLEIN -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Finance AN ACT to amend the executive law and the public officers law, in relation to establishing principles governing the management of state- owned intellectual property THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature finds and declares that it is in the interest of the state to ensure that the results of state- funded research are promptly developed and protected and, where appro- priate, made available in the public domain. It is further found that the people of the state should derive a substantial benefit from state investments in research and development, including: the dissemination of scientific discoveries; improvements in the public health and welfare; the introduction of new technologies, and the commercialization of the product of state-funded research that will lead to job creation and enhanced state revenues. The legislature further finds that the state needs to manage its intellectual property effectively so that it is best utilized for the benefit of the state and its citizens. It is further found that the intellectual property policies of individual state agencies and authori- ties should be appropriately formed and upheld in practice to ensure all participants in state-funded research and in commercialization of research discoveries understand their obligations and responsibilities. Therefore, the legislature finds it necessary to enact policies govern- ing the management of intellectual property resulting from research conducted in state facilities or with state funds. S 2. The executive law is amended by adding a new section 33 to read as follows: EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted. LBD04940-01-1
