4 Others EU-15 Changes in IPR regulations in Europe Country Institution Inventor Austria (2002) Belgium (1997/98) Denmark (2000) Finland (2007/2010) France (1982) Germany (2002) Greece (1995) Ireland (1964/1992) Italy (2001/2005) Luxembourg (1992) Netherlands (1995) Portugal (1995) Spain (1986) Sweden (1949) UK (1985) Norway (2002) Switzerland (1911) Czech Republic (1990) Hungary (2006) Poland (2000/2004) Slovak Republic (2000) Slovenia (2006) : Inventor ownership is assigned on certain types of inventions In brackets: year in which last change in regulation took place 4

5 Changes in IPR regulations in Europe Traditional involvement of university in IP management Direction of change in IPR ownership since mid-1990s Continuing institutional ownership From inventor ownership to institutional ownership From institutional ownership to inventor ownership Continuing inventor ownership Strong UK Spain Switzerland Weak France Greece Ireland Luxembourg Netherlands Portugal Austria Belgium Denmark Germany Finland Norway Italy Sweden Countries considered: EU-15 + Norway & Switzerland 5

6 Differentiation among institutional ownership systems Nature of regulation Specific law (e.g. public research act) General law on IPR Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Spain, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, UK Type of right of university Type of invention Remuneration of inventor Pre-emptive rights Automatic ownership According to funding According to circumstances No right to remuneration by law Right exists and is clearly defined Right exists but precise application left to parties or other authorities Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece (dependent inventions), Spain Belgium, UK, France, Greece (service inventions), Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal Finland Germany, Greece, Netherlands Ireland, Luxembourg Finland, Germany, Portugal (only PROs) Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands, France, Germany, Greece, Spain, UK Countries considered: EU-15 countries with institutional ownership (13 countries) 6

7 Differentiation among IPR systems Institutional vs. inventor ownership Institutional systems Inventor systems Italy vs. Sweden University bylaws But: processes of institutional isomorphism due to: Policies Imitation Emergence of professional TTOs 7

12 Changes in academic patenting patterns: evidence Data from TTO surveys (source: Piccaluga and Pietrabissa, 2010) ProTon (European Knowledge Transfer Association) ASP (Association of European Science and Technology Transfer Professionals) AUTM (Association of University Technology Managers) year n surveyed average number of applications per TTO average patents granted per TTO average licensing revenue per TTO (euro) , , ,900 n.a. 929,200 6,984,200 10,126,500 Average number of spinoffs created per TTO n.a Average number of R&C contracts/grants executed n.a n.a n.a 12

17 Changes in academic patenting patterns: discussion Increase in university patenting mainly due to entry of new actors mainly at the expense of inventor or government-owned patents evidence of displacement of company-owned patents in Germany Company-owned patents remain very important: Weak bargaining power of universities? Lack of ability/interest of TTO? Defiance of rules? Increase in academic patenting driven by increase in university-owned patents in follower countries evidence of decline or stagnation in countries where it was most established 17

18 Changes in academic patenting patterns: discussion Impact of changing cultural and organizational background patenting as legitimate and important academic activities creation of TTOs, university bylaws indirect effect of IPR regulations via incentives for TTO infrastructure Impact of policies in support of technology transfer UK Germany Norway Denmark Sweden Italy 18

19 Impact on knowledge transfer Ambiguous effects on knowledge transfer if company-owned patents are displaced Academic patents have more forward citations than non-academic ones but this has declined since mid-1990s (Czarnitzki et al, 2008) University-owned academic patents have less forward citations that company-owned academic patents (Lissoni et al, 2010) University-owned patents do not have higher probability of being used than company-owned academic patents (Crespi et al, 2006, PATVAL) but are more used than academic patents owned by individuals Need to investigate disruption of existing ties 19

20 Impact on knowledge transfer Need to investigate broader range of channels through which impact is made, e.g. several types of IP protection mechanisms beyond patents copyright including OS and fair use licenses, design rights, trademarks, transfer of non patented technologies and public domain knowledge UKNOW project ( ): survey of TTOs at 46 UK universities follow-up project with IPO looking at demand side proposal to survey UK academics in a subset of disciplines 20
