Key technology network model for the industrialization of research output: A university patent perspective

Abstract

In recent years, university patents have been substantially developed mainly because topics on the industrialization of university research outputs have received considerable attention. Previous studies on university patents have mostly focused on factors influencing the production of those patents, but have not yet distinguished between industrialized university patents and unindustrialized university patents. In addition, previous studies have not clearly recognized university patents with commercial value, technological networks, or key technologies that promoted industrialization. Moreover, a few studies have focused on the national dimension attached to university patent technological networks. In this study we incorporate several countries into our model and identify the technological niche positions of those countries. Here, Japan and the United States are playing critical roles in the worldwide technology network of university patents. The results of our study can serve as a reference point for universities worldwide in their allocation of resources and promotion of novel technologies.

“…However, as can be seen in Table 2, the large amount of investment for R&D funding has not brought about corresponding and continuous promotion of technological innovation capabilities. Almost invariably, the government appropriations such as scientific research funds in colleges were wasteful and redundant in China, and the market conversion rate of these scientific results was relatively lower [74]. Gao P. (2015) adopted the China's case of administrative intervention to explore the important indispensable role of government in the catching-up of technology innovation [75].…”
