Book Synopsis University Technology Transfer by : Tom Hockaday
Download or read book University Technology Transfer written by Tom Hockaday and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demystifying technology transfer—an increasingly important but little-understood aspect of research universities' mission. How do we transfer the brilliance of university research results into new products, services, and medicines to benefit society? University research is creating the technologies of tomorrow in the fields of medicine, engineering, information technology, robotics, and artificial intelligence. These early-stage technologies need investment from existing and new businesses to benefit society. But how do we connect university research outputs with business and investors? This process, Tom Hockaday explains, is what university technology transfer is all about: identifying, protecting, and marketing university research outputs in order to shift opportunities from the university into business. In this detailed introductory book—a comprehensive overview of and guide to the subject—Hockaday, an internationally recognized technology transfer expert, offers up his insider observations, opinions, and suggestions about university technology transfer. He also explains how to develop, strategically operate, and fund university technology transfer offices while behaving in accordance with the central mission of the university. Aimed at people who work in or with university technology transfer offices, as well as anyone who wants to learn the basics of what is involved, University Technology Transfer speaks to a global audience. Tackling a complex topic in clear language, the book reveals the impressive scale of patenting, licensing, and spin-out company creation while also demonstrating that university technology transfer is a commercial activity with benefits that go well beyond the opportunity to make money.

Book Synopsis The Chicago Handbook of University Technology Transfer and Academic Entrepreneurship by : Albert N. Link
Download or read book The Chicago Handbook of University Technology Transfer and Academic Entrepreneurship written by Albert N. Link and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-03-09 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 Chicago 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.

Book Synopsis The Effectiveness of University Technology Transfer by : Phillip Phan
Download or read book The Effectiveness of University Technology Transfer written by Phillip Phan and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book excerpt: Since it was first published in 2000, The Change Book has proven to be a landmark document for the addictions treatment and recovery services field. It is the first publication of its kind to outline the multidimensional aspects of instituting change specifically for addiction-related agencies. Within The Change Book are practical steps towards bringing about and maintaining change. However, change is not easy. Effective technology transfer efforts involve change at a variety of levels within the overall system. The Change Book offers a comprehensive blueprint for change, which will help direct each aspect of the design, development, implementation, evaluation and revision of a technology transfer plan. Factors influencing the success of a technology transfer initiative, effective change strategies, and Principles for successful adoption to occur are addressed. Today The Change Book is effectively guiding professionals across the country to create sustained change. Its design helps frontline treatment practitioners to implement new treatment modalities within their agencies, as well as government officials in state departments work toward system-wide changes. Although targeted for the addictions treatment and recovery services field, The Change Book has been successful in guiding change within other industries and fields of study. Demand for this publication continues to outnumber supply, as requests for The Change Book are made daily. For this reason, the Addiction Tecnology Transfer Center (ATTC) Network (www.ATTCnetwork.org) will now offer the second edition of The Change Book through an innovative distribution method made in partnership with AuthorHouse(R). The Change Book is now readily available through AuthorHouse(R), as well as a broad array of online venues.

Book Synopsis Factors for Successful Commercialisation of University Research by Technology Transfer Offices by : Priya Bhana
Download or read book Factors for Successful Commercialisation of University Research by Technology Transfer Offices written by Priya Bhana and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally universities strive to achieve their two core missions, research and education. However another mission, commercialisation, has emerged over recent decades. This third mission enables knowledge to be transferred out of the university with a commercial orientation, in order to provide a range of social and economic benefits to society. This led to the introduction of technology transfer offices (TTOs) that sit on the interface between university and industry and conduct commercial activities on behalf of the university. Extensive literature surrounds TTOs including factors that influence university technology transfer (UTT) and success. However, most of these studies are conducted in countries other than New Zealand and thus the technology transfer literature lacks a New Zealand perspective. This research investigated factors that influence successful commercialisation by TTOs in New Zealand and strategies implemented to address such factors. An explorative qualitative approach was used and data was collected through the implementation of semi-structured interviews on seven New Zealand TTO directors. Data analysis led to three primary findings. Firstly, factors that negatively influence successful commercialisation stem from two of the triple helix stakeholders, industry and university. It was suggested that the two most emphasised barriers, lack of funding and poor industry engagement, were caused by the lack of scale of the New Zealand ecosystem. Secondly, all TTO directors defined success as the ability to get a project to a ‘deal ready’ stage and then concluding a deal. Additionally they reported several success factors as well as metrics used to measure success. Thirdly, strategies implemented to address the reported influencing factors target three core areas: resources, reputation and relationships. The results of this research contribute to the academic conversation by providing a New Zealand perspective to current UTT literature and thus reducing speculation about the technology transfer space in New Zealand. Practical implications of this research include informing policy makers and/or strategists of the key areas that influence TTO directors, in order to target and promote effective technology transfer in New Zealand. This study also provides a basis for future research in the following areas. For example, investigating factors that influence other stakeholders such as academics or industry leaders may help form a more comprehensive understanding of UTT in New Zealand. Secondly, further research into success measures may help develop a success matrix for the evaluation of New Zealand UTT.
Book Synopsis Technology Transfer, Intellectual Property and Effective University-industry Partnerships by : World Intellectual Property Organization
Download or read book Technology Transfer, Intellectual Property and Effective University-industry Partnerships written by World Intellectual Property Organization and published by WIPO. This book was released on 2007 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines and evaluates the recent progress made in seven Asian countries (China, India, Japan, Philippines, the Republic of Korea, Singapore and Thailand) towards more effective and mutually reinforcing relations between universities and industries in the field of scientific and technological research and proposes a checklist for action to make these relationships even more effective from the broad perspective of the national economy. In particular, it highlights the mechanisms adopted by these Asian countries for technology transfer and pays particular attention to the use of the intellectual property system as an instrument for technology transfer from university to industry. While economic and historical situations are different across Asian countries and no simple solution can be found that is universally applicable throughout the region, it is the hope of the participants in this project that this document will provide some useful lessons and insights, and will thus be helpful to policy-makers who are concerned with evaluating the effectiveness of university- industry relations in their respective countries and identifying ways to improve them.

This book was released on 2021-10-04 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book aims to present the experiences and visions of several world university leaders, providing strategies and methods used to find various income sources for their institutions. The expansion of a university system requires a corresponding increase in funding. Consequently, university administrators all over the world are in a constant search for additional funds. If higher-level institutions are expected to deliver high-quality education and research, their sustainable funding is crucial to the development of the countries they serve. While governmental sources are a major part of the funding of most universities, economic downturns as in the case of the COVID-19 crisis may reduce governmental contributions in this and cause administrators to look for various alternative sources to help them compete in a global setting. This book offers valuable information and guidance to university leaders and administrators worldwide especially at a time when university budgets are under stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic with its dire financial and economic consequences.
