for hospitals, universities, and institutions creating technology spinoffs

Turning clinical and scientific innovation into compliant, investable companies

GooVentures partners with U.S. hospitals, universities, and research institutions to transform internal innovation — clinical, technological, or scientific — into structured, compliant, and scalable spinoffs.

We are not an academic incubator nor an external consultancy. We operate as a venture studio: we provide business structure, product execution, regulatory readiness, and go-to-market where innovation already exists but lacks a corporate vehicle.

The institutional gap we solve

Across U.S. healthcare systems and academic institutions, the same pattern repeats:

High-value innovation exists (clinical workflows, digital tools, algorithms, IP, NIH-funded research).
Regulatory complexity creates hesitation around commercialization.
Technology transfer offices are not designed to operate companies.
Clinicians and researchers cannot — and should not — take on CEO or founder roles.
Promising projects stall at pilot stage, internal use, or licensing attempts.

GooVentures fills this operational and regulatory gap.

What GooVentures is for an institution

For U.S. hospitals and universities, Goo.Ventures is a company-building and regulatory partner, not a service provider.

We bring:

Spinoff structuring aligned with U.S. corporate and nonprofit constraints.
Operational leadership and interim executive roles.
Regulatory strategy for healthcare software and data-driven products.
Investment readiness aligned with U.S. venture standards.
Professional governance, compliance, and reporting.

The institution remains focused on what it does best: patient care, research, and education.

Collaboration models

Shared venture

Co-development of a solution with the institution as a strategic partner, including equity participation.

Validation and structuring

Technical and business assessment of internal projects with spinoff potential.

Institutional spinoff

Joint creation of a new company based on an existing asset (patent, software, know-how, clinical outcome).

What GooVentures brings

Business and governance structure

Executive leadership, business model design, pricing strategy, KPIs, and board-ready reporting.

Product and technology execution

Development of healthcare software, clinical MVPs, and enterprise-grade platforms.

Regulatory and compliance expertise

Early alignment with U.S. healthcare requirements, including HIPAA, FDA pathways (where applicable), data governance, and institutional compliance standards.

Validated execution and optimized development environment

Experience across 7 validated venture projects, combined with a controlled development and experimentation environment.

Go-to-market execution

First enterprise customers, hospital pilots, and commercial traction before major funding rounds.

Projects are incubated and built leveraging highly specialized teams and optimized cost structures, tested in a regulatory and operational context we know deeply, and then transferred and scaled into the U.S. market with a proven foundation.

What we do not ask from the institution

We do not require clinicians or researchers to become founders.
We do not transfer operational risk to the institution.
We do not transfer operational risk to the institution.

Our role is to assume the business responsibility with real skin in the game.

How participation is structured

Each project is designed individually, but the typical framework includes:

Equity participation for the institution or affiliated entity.
Clear IP ownership, licensing, and commercialization rights.
Governance structures compatible with nonprofit and public institutions.
Defined compliance and risk boundaries.
Optional future co-investment or strategic participation.

Everything is documented from the outset — no retrofitting later.

Typical use cases

A hospital with internal software solving a recurring clinical problem.
A university holding a patent without a clear commercialization path.
A research group with scientific validation but no company structure.

Institutions this fits

U.S. hospital systems and academic medical centers.
Universities with active technology transfer offices.
Research institutions and foundations.
Healthcare corporates running structured innovation and venture programs.

Why GooVentures instead of TTOs, accelerators, or external consultancies?

Technology Transfer Offices, accelerators, and consultancies each serve a purpose. None is designed to create and operate regulated companies.

TTOs focus on IP protection and licensing, not on building products, running companies, or managing regulatory execution.

Accelerators support founder-led startups, not institution-led ventures, and do not assume long-term operational responsibility.

Consultancies advise, but they do not execute, invest, or remain accountable for outcomes.

We do not deliver programs or reports.

We build compliant, investable companies — with aligned incentives and shared long-term value.
