"The University of Waterloo has a policy that any IP developed by profs or grad students is owned by them rather than the university."

wow - that's almost unheard of at any good university in the US



I heard this is still the case in California by state law. Are there any other places where professors own all of there IP?


It's funny, as a result of this policy half the profs at the school have companies on the side and are obscenely rich.
