“…In relation to inventions, most studies have focused on the licensing activities of enterprises (Gassmann et al 2010;Lichtenthaler and Ernst 2007), and the determinants of invention (Gambardella et al 2007). Other literature has examined the most visible aspects of technology transfer, licensing and co-patenting by universities, and especially to industry (Motohashi and Yun 2007;Wu and Zhou 2012). We have found that existing studies share the common feature that they examine patent licensing from a micro perspective.…”

“…One of the reasons for the high application numbers is that single-claim patents are generally favored in China (Sun 2003). Moreover, Wu and Zhou (2012) indicate that Chinese universities often focus on the adaption and redevelopment of foreign technology. Both reasons might lead to more, but somewhat incremental, patent applications.…”

University patenting: a comparison of 300 leading universities worldwide

Despite a worldwide increase in university patenting, empirical studies have largely focused on analyzing university patenting in individual countries and regions. We provide analyses from an international perspective, examining patents at the top 300 universities worldwide. By providing a patent ranking system and an analysis of the determinants of university patenting, we enable an international comparison not only between different countries but also between universities within countries. A ranking of the top-patenting universities shows a huge predominance of US universities: 18 of the top 25 universities are located in the US, with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology being ranked first. Our results show that the propensity to apply for patents is very high among US and Asian universities, while European universities lag behind. In addition to the home country, further determinants of university patenting are the quantity of the universities' publications and a technological focus in areas such as chemistry and mechanical engineering. However, the size of a university and the quality of its publications are not found to be significant determinants.

“…Rather than acting as innovators, their potential of generating widely used technological patents or commercialized products has been limited. There is often a mismatch between the ambitious goals of the state and the reality of industry, institutional structure, and market place in these countries (Wu and Zhou, 2012). Another important factor that has ironically undermined the universities' role is the significant growth of some of the most successful companies.…”

Technology transfer from academic and scientific institutions has been transformed into a strategic variable for companies and nations who wish to cope with the challenges of a global economy. Since the early 1970s, many technology transfer models have tried to introduce key factors in the process. Previous studies have shown that technology transfer is influenced by various elements. This study is based on a review of two recent technology transfer models that we have used as basic concepts for developing our own conceptual model. Researcher-firm networks have been considered as key elements in the technology transfer process between public universities and firms. The conceptual model proposed could be useful to improve the efficiency of existing technology transfer mechanisms.
