The Florida State University Research Foundation (FSURF) is a not-for-profit corporation, and a direct-support organization of Florida State University as provided for in Section 1004.28, Florida Statutes. FSURF was formally established by the Florida Board of Regents in September 1993.

FSURF serves as the principal conduit for the Office of Commercialization, whereby the products of university research are made available to the marketplace. FSURF is the assignee of the University's Intellectual Property (IP), and therefore, is the fiscal agent for all activities with respect to the commercialization of the IP.

FSURF promotes and encourages, and provides assistance to, the research and training activities of faculty, staff and students at FSU.
