the chicago handbook of university Technology Transfer and academic entrepreneurship
2015Co-Authors: Donald S. Siegel, Mike WrighAbstract:As state support and federal research funding dwindle, universities are increasingly viewing their intellectual property portfolios as lucrative sources of potential revenue. Nearly all research universities now have a Technology Transfer office to manage their intellectual property, but many are struggling to navigate this new world of university-industry partnerships. Given the substantial investment in academic research and millions of dollars potentially at stake, identifying best practices in university Technology Transfer and academic entrepreneurship is of paramount importance. The C hicago Handbook of University Technology Transfer and Academic Entrepreneurship is the first definitive source to synthesize state-of-the-art research in this arena. Edited by three of the foremost experts in the field, the handbook presents evidence from entrepreneurs, administrators, regulators, and professors in numerous disciplines. Together they address the key managerial and policy implications through chapters on how to sustain successful research ventures, ways to stimulate academic entrepreneurship, maintain effective open innovation strategies, and improve the performance of university Technology Transfer offices. A broad and ambitious work, the handbook offers comprehensive coverage for universities of all types, allowing them to confidently handle Technology commercialization and further cultivate innovation.

an empirical analysis of the propensity of academics to engage in informal university Technology Transfer
Industrial and Corporate Change, 2007Co-Authors: Albe N Link, Donald S. Siegel, Arry OzemaAbstract:Formal university Technology Transfer mechanisms, through licensing agreements, research joint ventures, and university-based startups, have attracted considerable attention in the academic literature. Surprisingly, there has been little systematic empirical analysis of the propensity of academics to engage in informal Technology Transfer. This paper presents empirical evidence on the determinants of three types of informal Technology Transfer by faculty members: knowledge Transfer, joint publications with industry scientists, and consulting. We find that male and tenured faculty members are more likely to engage in all three forms of informal Technology Transfer. We also find that academics who allocate a relatively higher percentage of their time to grants-related research are more likely to engage in informal commercial knowledge Transfer.

The Effectiveness of University Technology Transfer: Lessons Learned, Managerial and Policy Implications, and the Road Forward
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2006Co-Authors: Phillip H. Phan, Donald S. SiegelAbstract:In recent years, there have been numerous studies of the effectiveness of university Technology Transfer. Such Technology Transfer mechanisms include licensing agreements between the university and private firms, science parks, incubators, and university-based startups. We review and synthesize these papers and present some pointed recommendations on how to enhance effectiveness. Implementation of these recommendations will depend on the mechanisms that universities choose to stress, based on their Technology Transfer "strategy." For example, institutions that emphasize the entrepreneurial dimension of Technology Transfer must address skill deficiencies in Technology Transfer offices, reward systems that are inconsistent with enhanced entrepreneurial activity and the lack of training for faculty members, post-docs, and graduate students in starting new ventures or interacting with entrepreneurs. Universities will also have to confront a set of issues related to ethics and social responsibility, as they more aggressively pursue Technology commercialization. Finally, we suggest some possible theoretical frameworks for additional research.

r d and Technology Transfer firm level evidence from chinese industry
The Review of Economics and Statistics, 2005Co-Authors: Gary H Jefferson, Qian JinchangAbstract:In bridging the Technology gap with the OECD nations, developing economies have access to three avenues of technological advance: domestic R&D, Technology Transfer, and foreign direct investment. This paper examines the contributions of each of these avenues, as well as their interactions, to productivity within Chinese industry. Based on a large data set for China's large and medium-size enterprises, the estimation results show that in-house R&D significantly complements Technology Transfer—whether of domestic or foreign origin. Foreign direct investment, which we assume is an important channel of proprietary Technology Transfer, does not facilitate the Transfer of market-mediated foreign Technology.

entrepreneurship and university based Technology Transfer
Journal of Business Venturing, 2005Co-Authors: Gideo D Markma, Phillip H Pha, David Alki, Pete T GianiodisAbstract:A framework is developed using grounded theory to aid in understanding the relationships between the organization of university Technology Transfer offices (UTTOs), licensing strategies, and the process of Technology Transfer-inspired new startups.The study investigate which university Technology Transfer offices' (UTTOs) structures and licensing strategies are most supportive of new venture formation, and correlations between structures and licensing strategies. Interviews with 128 UTTO directors and content analysis of university policies revealed that UTTOs are organized into three archetypes: (1) traditional university structure; (2) nonprofit 501(C)l research foundations; and (3) for-profit private venture extension.Although for-profit UTTO structures are positively related to new venture formation, traditional university and nonprofit UTTO structures are more likely to correlate with the presence of university-based business incubators. The model developed indicates that for-profit UTTO structures and licensing in exchange for equity are most positively related to new venture formation, but licensing for cash is the most common strategy used to Transfer technologies.Although licensing for equity is more likely to drive new venture emergence, the UTTO motivation to maximize cash flows and minimize financial and legal risks often leads to a strategic choice that does not support new venture creation.

Technology Transfer in a global economy
The Journal of Technology Transfer, 2014Co-Authors: David B. Audretsch, Erik E. Lehmann, Mike WrightAbstract:The emergence of new technologies is acting both as a driving force and an enabling factor to globalization. At the same time, these technologies are changing rapidly, shortening the life cycles of products and the underlying processes, and raising Technology costs. Technology Transfer from academic and scientific institutions has thus transformed into a strategic variable for companies and nations to cope with these challenges in a global economy. This article introduces the rationale for the special issue on the role of Technology Transfer in a global economy. The paper summarizes the main topics and themes covered by a selection of papers and keynotes presented at the annual conference of the Technology Transfer Society in 2011, as well as providing some pointers towards a future research agenda.

academic spin offs formal Technology Transfer and capital raising
Industrial and Corporate Change, 2007Co-Authors: Bart Clarysse, Mike Wright, Andy Lockett, Philippe Mustar, Mirjam KnockaertAbstract:In this article we examine the influence of formal Technology Transfer from a public research organization (PRO) on the amount of capital a spin-off raises at start-up and the increase in capital post start-up. We examine these relationships using a unique sample of 135 spin-offs from PROs across five European countries. Our findings suggest that spin-offs with formal Technology Transfer start with a larger amount of capital but subsequently do not raise more capital than spin-offs without formal Technology Transfer.
