The field you're looking for is called "tech transfer" - many universities have technology transfer offices that help research connect from a lab to industry, usually enriching researchers through the sale of patents or consulting contracts. I don't know of any compendium on the web, but if someone were looking to get started there is a field to dig into where people do this kind of work full time. It's essentially a two-sided market making process of curating useful innovations and building up a sales function to close deals.
