The issue of obtaining intellectual property rights and negotiating licensing agreements in a reasonable amount of time also came up in my conversation with Steve Vassallo of Foundation Capital. He says that a major component of a partnership between the DOE, VC firms and DOE Labs is the standardization of licensing agreements.
