To promote university patent transfer (UPT) and technology diffusion, the Chinese government has implemented a series of economic incentives. One such incentive involves increasing the share rate of faculty inventors from 20% to 50%. We investigate whether such sharing arrangements are effective in encouraging patent disclosure by faculty inventors and in ultimately enhancing UPT performance. To conduct our empirical analysis, we selected the top 35 universities in China based on their rankings in terms of patent applications and collected comprehensive data pertaining to their patent applications and faculty inventors. A regression model based on propensity score matching was developed to obtain the results. The results demonstrate that the economic incentives of increased inventor share rates only partly achieved the policy goals. Specifically, increasing the inventor’s share of equity exhibits positive influences on faculty invention disclosure rates at both the faculty and patent levels but a negative impact at the university level. It also leads to an improvement in university UPT performance. In contrast, increasing the inventor’s share of royalty fails to produce the desired effect. It does not significantly contribute to promoting invention disclosure or UPT performance. From these results, this study provides better ways for Chinese university administrators and policymakers to improve the future of invention disclosures and UPT.

The study will initially include information about incubation mechanisms and the nature of digital entrepreneurship. A detailed literature review is going to be conducted and former studies are going to be examined in terms of their context, methodology, and findings in detail. Better performing systems are going to be promoted and their procedures are going to be used in implications for the practitioners. Besides these, focus will be on access to resources, mentorship and guidance, networking opportunities, validation and credibility, access to finance and funding opportunities, support programs, and lastly, collaboration occasion in terms of the pros of the incubator mechanisms. On the other hand, equity stake, lack of autonomy, project evaluation criteria, competitiveness and time constrains, dependency, and mismatched expectations are going to be examined in detail as cons of these mechanisms. Later on, conceptual framework is going to be constructed in terms of the qualifications of incubators, their procedures, and advantages besides their handicaps.
