NUS Enterprise says it has launched Nova, an AI platform developed with Zima Labs to help its staff find commercial partners for university research. It has also established an outpost in Munich through a partnership with UnternehmerTUM, giving NUS ventures a local connection to European investors, partners and customers.

Nova searches NUS patent and research records alongside outside company information to rank potential licensees and draft proposals. The organization says the platform draws on more than 20,000 patents and invention disclosures, 9,000 research projects and 11,000 inventors. A separate Shanghai outpost is planned for the fourth quarter of 2026.
