Green technology innovation (GTI) requires a large capital investment, while the role of these capital investments in promoting GTI needs to be further confirmed. To improve GTI, universityindustry alliances (U-Is) in green innovation ecosystems engage in knowledge-sharing behaviors and form different knowledge-sharing strategies based on changes in cooperation modes. Employing a differential game, this study explores the utility of multichannel funding for innovation revenues in different cooperative modes of U-Is and the impact on revenue distributions. This article considers three game models in five cases: Nash noncooperative game with no multichannel funding, Nash noncooperative game with external funding but no government subsidies, Nash noncooperative game with multichannel funding, Stackelberg game, and cooperative game. Solving the game model and applying the numerical analysis results in certain interesting conclusions. Our research finds that, first, in the cooperative game, the strongest willingness to share knowledge occurs in the university-industry alliance, in which the total revenues of both parties reach the Pareto optimum. Second, multichannel funding can serve as an incentive mechanism for enterprises and universities to improve the knowledge-sharing willingness, the GTI level, and the revenues of the two players, while the utility of the multichannel funding is strongest in the cooperative game. In addition, in the Stackelberg game, enterprises share subsidies with universities, which stimulates their willingness to share knowledge, and both parties' revenues are better than they are in the three cases of noncooperation. Eventually, the revenue-sharing ratio of the enterprise has a smaller threshold, and the university can share more benefits relative to the absence of the multichannel funding, which helps balance the U-I in the green innovation ecosystem. These conclusions make a substantial contribution to the selection of cooperation modes and the formulation of revenues distribution contracts in university-industry alliances.INDEX TERMS University-industry; multichannel funding; green technology innovation; knowledge sharing; green innovation ecosystem

“…Identifying innovation city-regions using patent data also opens the door to further analysis of their development, including changes in the patent co-invention networks or Triple Helix collaboration networks (Leydesdorff and Persson 2010;Leydesdorff and Sun 2009), patent inventor-assignee networks (Bhattacharya 2004), patent quality indicators (Gautam et al 2014;Hagedoorn and Cloodt 2003;Lanjouw and Schankerman 2004) or changes in the kinds of collaborations and research taking place within a city-region's innovation system (Park and Leydesdorff 2010;Stek and Van Geenhuizen 2015), including the distance of a city-region from the technological frontier (Toivanen and Suominen 2015) and which important technologies are being researched (Jung 2017). These are all avenues that offer opportunities to gain further insight into the sub-national spatial dynamics of global R&D expenditure and innovation activity.…”

A methodology for identifying high R&D city-regions worldwide using patent data is presented. A heat map (kernel density estimation) approach is used which allows city-regions to be identified in areas with a high patenting intensity, a proxy for high R&D expenditure. The methodology is independent of any pre-existing administrative boundaries and it can therefore be applied to identify sub-national concentrations of R&D expenditure worldwide. This is an important advantage compared to other statistical data which is often only available at the national level. The results provide insight into the changing worldwide spatial distribution of R&D expenditure between 1997 and 2011, including the rapid rise of Asian R&D city-regions as well as less dramatic shifts among European and North American city-regions. The results also highlight some challenges of identifying high R&D cityregions and estimating R&D expenditure using patent data, and the existence of very large high R&D city-regions which encompass multiple cities. Some suggestions for improvement and further research are also proposed.

“…Companies, laboratories, and individuals can apply for a patent to protect a new technology, sometimes even simply to establish technological boundaries [8]. Whatever the strategic reasons, a patent can be applied for, only if it is for industrial use [9,10]. They are extremely relevant to companies, as they are resources that serve the long-term business.…”

Investments in research and development (R&D) and innovation are expensive, and one wishes to be assured that there is positive feedback and to receive guidance on how to direct investments in the future. The social or economic benefits of investments in R&D are of particular interest to policymakers. In this regard, public expense in research, especially through universities, is sometimes being questioned. This paper establishes a measure of how research in Spain, and specifically in its universities, is involved. In this study, we have analyzed all the literature cited in the period 1998–2018 produced by Spanish institutions and which has been cited in at least one international patent, obtaining more than 40,000 publications from more than 160,000 different authors. The data have been surprisingly positive, showing that practically all public universities contribute to this subject and that there is a great deal of international collaboration, both in terms of the number of countries with which they collaborate and the prestige of the institutions involved. Regarding the specific scientific fields in which this collaboration is most relevant, biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology, and medicine together account for almost 40% of the total works. The topics most used by these publications were those of diseases or medical problems such as: Neoplams, Carcinoma, Alzheimer Disease, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1). Oncology was according to the All Science Journal Classification (ASJC) the leading and central issue. Therefore, although the result of basic research is difficult to quantify, when it is observed that there is a return in fields such as medicine or global health, it can be said that it is well employed. In terms of journals from a purely bibliometric point of view, it has been observed that some journals do not have a great impact or relative position within their categories, but they do have a great relevance in this area of patent support. Therefore, it would be worthwhile to set up a rank for scientific journals based on the citations of patents, so the percentage of articles cited in patents with Field-Weighted Citation Impact (FWCI) >1, and as an indicator of scientific transfer from universities or research centres, the transference index in patents (TIP) is also proposed.
