Sparking the Fire of Invention
MIT Tech Review article details various startups that are "invention only" firms.....that aren't mired in the red tape of corporate R&D. Profiled is Invention Science which was recently started by Nathan Myhrvold - former head of Microsoft Research Technology.
Also mentioned:
Walker Digital
Invent Resources
Generics Group
Sarcos Research
Deka Research and Development
Readers should not think the article was comprehensive. It didn't mention Danny Hillis' new company, Applied Minds, or Paul Allen's effort for example, both of which were covered in past issues of Technology Review.
