“…In addition, Tseng et al (2007) noted that text mining is useful for patent data and used text mining in their patent analysis. Indeed, there are many examples of using patent data to study the development trends of technological innovations (Jeong, Lee, Yoon, & Phaal, 2015).…”

Statistics show high levels of interest in blockchain technology, however, considerable adoption has not occurred. This research examines why interest is high, yet levels of adoption are low, by identifying the factors influencing blockchain’s adoption and systematizing them into a theoretical framework. A mixed methodology is used to address the adoption factors. First, a qualitative approach is used to discover the factors from primary data collected from 25 interviews with 23 different organizations. Second, a survey is employed to empirically test the factors with 146 employees from 71 organizations. A total of 18 factors are discovered and seven are tested. The findings support and validate several factors influencing blockchain adoption and contribute a novel factor; perceived technological volatility. A new empirically validated scale is developed to measure organizational perceptions of a technology’s volatility. Furthermore, this research is one of the first to employ a mixed methodology to address blockchain technology adoption.

Purpose Understanding a technology’s patent landscape, including patent strategies, helps organizations position themselves regarding their innovation and provides insight about a technology’s future direction. This study aims to provide an overview of the blockchain technology patenting trends and outlines an exploratory framework of patenting strategies for blockchain. Design/methodology/approach A total of 3,234 registered patents are analyzed to determine the geographical distribution and identify key actors patenting around the globe. In addition, an empirical study consisting of multiple case studies in the form of ten in-depth interviews with owners/managers of organizations based in North America was conducted to understand organizations’ strategies for patenting the blockchain technology. Findings Several novel insights regarding the strategies are used for blockchain technology patenting. For example, the existence of strong anti-patent sentiment which results in a lack of patenting by start-up organizations or has led to a form of open source patenting strategy. Larger organizations appear to be patenting defensively, and small to medium organizations are primarily patenting to defend their competitive advantage. Practical implications Start-up organizations harboring anti-patent sentiment should consider the open-source patenting strategy to ensure that the collaborative innovation network can continue. They should also consider collaborating with other actors within the network to have a competitive position in the market. Originality/value To the authors’ knowledge, this paper is the first to conduct an empirical study with organizations currently using the blockchain technology to understand patenting strategies used for blockchain.

“…In previous literature, keyword-based approaches have had some limitations in the analysis process and interpretation of the results. First, even if text mining were applied, a noise filtering from domain experts was required to extract elaborate and robust keywords when generating keyword vectors in the patent databases [40,41]. Keywords play a critical role, since patent vacuums are generated by analyzing the characteristics of patents for keyword vectors.…”

Technological Opportunity Analysis: Assistive Technology for Blind and Visually Impaired People

et al. 2020

As life expectancy increases, the number of people who suffer from blind and visual impairment due to presbyopia is gradually increasing. Assistive device systems have been used to overcome various physical, social, infrastructure, and accessibility barriers. As technology has advanced, the scope of assistive technologies has been expanded. Therefore, we explored technological opportunities in assistive technology for the blind and visually impaired to establish a strategy for the technology competition in the near future. Firstly, the patent vacuum is detected by generating the patent map based on generative topographic mapping (GTM). Secondly, social network analysis is applied to identify the relationship between patent vacuums and occupied grid points in the patent map. Finally, the technology activity index and technology impact index are considered at quantitative and qualitative levels. Consequently, it was identified that wearable devices, including the road situation signal acquisition module and data acquisition process control module, could be occupied in the future. This study can provide practical ideas for research and development (R&D) in the field of assistive devices for the blind and visually impaired. In addition, this study can be an ample source for decision/policy makers to project new contents.
