“…Most of the current literature that examines the quality of joint patents does so by comparing joint patent quality to the quality of patents with a single owner (Belderbos et al, 2014;Briggs and Wade, 2014). This paper differs by focusing on the factors that impact quality among the subset of jointly owned patents.…”

“…A more recent stream of research has successfully shown that joint patent ownership corresponds to higher quality innovations relative to patents with a single owner (Belderbos et al, 2014;Briggs and Wade, 2014). Using a panel of approximately 2.5 million patent observations in 188 countries over 32 years, Briggs and Wade (2014) find that, in general, jointly owned patents receive more forward patent citations (a widely accepted proxy for patent quality) relative to patents with a single owner.…”

“…Joint patent ownership increasingly appears to be one component to achieving this goal. Belderbos et al (2014) and Briggs and Wade (2014) find that the quality of jointly owned patents exceeds that of single owner patents. This paper builds on these results to reveal that quality is statistically higher in joint patents with co-owners in multiple countries.…”

“…Each joint patent or co-patent shown in the dataset is defined as the patent owned by two or more firms [4] that form a duopoly or tight oligopoly comparable to a restrictive licensing agreement from an economic standpoint [5] . The joint patents in the dataset are considered a good measure of innovative output in an alliance [ 6 , 7 ].…”

Dataset on technological alliances by using joint patents in the biotechnology industry

The data in this article includes biotechnological joint patents as a proxy of technological alliances. Joint patents are not directly found in public or commercial databases. Each joint patent has their corresponding International Patent Classification codes, their forward citation measure as an indicator of innovation value, and the firms involved in the process. The data was collected during a time frame that ranges from 2006 to 2010. Data from the joint biotechnological patents was collected at first during the time window, and then filtered, cleaned, and sampled accordingly to obtain 340 joint patents between firms (e.g. alliances) in the industry. Then each of the joint patents was processed to find the forward citations they have. Data on joint patents of biotechnology industry can be reused in future studies related to technological alliances and patenting mechanisms and process.
