Academic patenting in Europe: new evidence from the KEINS database Francesco Lissoni (Università di Brescia & CESPRI-Università Bocconi) European Universities Learning to Compete June 12, 2008, Stockholm

3 Outline 1.Motivation: re-assessment of academic patenting phenomenon in Europe 2.Academic inventorship and the KEINS database: origin and methodology 3.Academic patenting in Sweden in an international perspective 4.Summing up and research questions from 3. 5.More research questions

4 Repeal of Hochschullehrerprivileg Germany (2001 Reform of Employee Law), Austria (2002), Denmark (2000, Act on Inventions at Public Research Institutions) Introduction of Hochschullehrerprivileg Italy (2001 Legge Finanziaria) Titolarity of IPR over public funded research UK (1998; National Health Service circular), Germany (1998), Belgium (1999; Decree on Education) IPR awareness campaigns Germany ( ), Sweden (1994; jointly to creation of “Technology Bridging Foundations”), France (1999; 2001) 1. MOTIVATION: Promotion of university patenting in Europe

5 1. MOTIVATION: Is it really necessary to promote university patenting in Europe? Recent literature suggests that it may be the case that European university produce patents, but do not own them EU universities have little or no tradition of self-administration: they have traditionally left IPR management decisions in their professors’ hands, who in turn have left them in their business/govt sponsors’ hands In a few countries, professor’s priviledge tradition; almost anywhere, professors are or regard themselves as civil servants, more responsive to central government’s regulations, than to their universities’ Absence of Bayh-Dole Act + big role (in a few countries) of large national agencies  patents in government’s hands  Best way to count university patents in Europe is to look at the inventors, not the applicants  KEINS DATABASE!!!

6 2. THE KEINS DATABASE Knowledge-based Entrepreneurship, Innovation Networks and Systems in Europe, (6th FP) / Workpackage 5: Analysis of Scientific Entrepreneurship through Patent & Publications Data  KEINS database on France, Italy and Sweden Further extensions: Netherlands (done), Denmark and UK (ongoing) More extensions and updating: pending application to ESF

7 A closer look at patent documents Patent data have long been exploited by social scientists for their rich information contents: –on companies: patent counts as output measure of innovation production function (Griliches, 1990) –on technologies: studies on the (evolution of) the techno- logical contents (classification) of patents (Engelsman & Van Raan, 1994; Van Raan, 1997)classification –on knowledge diffusion: studies on patent citations, esp. in the geographical space (Jaffe and Trajtenberg, 2002) More info, previously unexploited, is now under scrutiny: –accessory info on the value of patents: licensing, litigation records (go to: – INFO ON INVENTORS 2. THE KEINS DATABASE

8 What are info on inventors useful for? 1.More accurate geographical information (most basic, used for long) 2.MOBILITY OF INVENTORS between applicants and across cities/regions (Trajtenberg et al., 2006) 3.RELATIONAL DATA: who knows whom  networks of inventors (Breschi and Lissoni, 2004) 4.NAMES DATABASE  for matching purposes: academic inventors (KEINS DATABASE; Lissoni et al., 2007)  for interview purposes (PATSTAT project) 2. THE KEINS DATABASE

9 All EPO patent applications ( ) Standardisation of company names/addresses/parent co. Company-level data (~140k organizations) Standardisation of inventors’ names /addresses + Massacrator © routine Inventor-level data set Publicaton number, priority date, IPC class, citations etc. Methodology 2.

25 4. Summing up and research questions Does Europe really fare worse than the US in academic patenting? YES, in absolute numbers. NO, as % of overall patenting activity, esp. Sweden Does a “European model” of academic patenting exist? YES, it consists of leaving ownership largely in business companies’ hands. BUT:  things are changing: university ownership is increasing (Della Malva, Lissoni, Llerena, 2008)  the Netherlands seems to be a partial exception Ownership patterns for academic patenting are affected both by:  IPR regulations  Institutional features of academic systems  Academic scientists’ incentives to invent-for-patenting, disclose to universities, and relate to industry Stratification of universities with respect to patent portfolios

26 5. More research questions Quality of academic patenting  citation analysiscitation analysis Identity and scientific productivity of academic inventors (Breschi, Lissoni and Montobbio, 2007) Problems of inventorship attribution (Lissoni and Montobbio, 2008)
