| Research Abstract |
In this study, we empirically examined the possibility of the circulation of technology patents that Japanese private enterprises / universities held, and its influence to corporate management and industry development process in Japan. In the first year (2003), we built an original research framework and made problems around technology patent clear. Particularly, we classified the problems in management over intellectual property into five domains, (1) IP creation, (2) IP right, (3) IP utilization, (4) IP dispute resolution, (5) IP infrastructure, and published it as a book "Intellectual Property Management Guide". In the second year (2004), we mainly focused on a questionnaire survey of university TLOs (Technology Licensing Office) in Japan. In the final year (2005), we analyzed the result of the survey, and conducted several complementally interview surveys in TLOs. We also conducted several interviews in private enterprises in order to know their IP strategies. Main findings are following,
(1) Technology licensing can be interpreted as marketing activity. This intangible product needs a different approach from traditional marketing approach that treats consumer goods, service goods, and industrial goods.
(2) The role of TLO is not only matching scientific discovery with market needs but also facilitate a long term relationship that generate technological ideas continuously.
(3) When we classified TLOs into two categories, as either "individual type" where performance is merely the sum of each members' individual performance, or "organizational type" where performance depends on organizational assets or collaboration within the team, "organizational type" was dominant in Japan.
(4) The time allocation ratio between sales, legal affairs and strategic activities is approximately 6:2:2, may enjoy greater performance.
