Firms' intellectual property ownership aggressiveness in university–industry collaboration projects: Choosing the right governance mode

Abstract: Intellectual property (IP) ownership aggressiveness constitutes an organization's strategic stance that prioritizes its IP protection. An organization thus pursues a rigid approach to protect its background IP and strives for exclusive ownership of the foreground IP that results from collaborative projects. This paper investigates how firms' IP ownership aggressiveness influences university-industry collaboration (UIC) project success and examines if the relationship is contingent on the governance modes that … Show more

Bennett conducted a comparative analysis to define similarities and differences in the programs in the field of IP management, technology transfer and entrepreneurship used by five top American research institutes, paying special attention to disclosure of information on inventions, IP, legal protection and licensing strategies, and the policy of settlement of concerned parties' conflict of interests in the innovation sector which is extensively studied by USA universities -and to a lesser extent, by Latin America universities [24].…”
