Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we empirically examine the impact of patenting in SMEs on financing and performance. We find that patenting by SMEs increase their accessibility to venture capital funding relative to firms that do not, and also improve firm performance. The results also show that the expansion of the scope of software patents and the patent fee reduction schemes also play a significant contribution to the performance of SMEs in Japan.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

これまで特許と企業の関係性を分析したものの多くは大企業に焦点を当てており、中小企業においてどのような役割を果たしているのかについては、まだ十分に研究の蓄積があるわけではない。特に、日本の中小企業の特許取得に焦点を当てた研究はほとんど行われていないのが実情である。このような状況下で、本研究の分析において、中小企業の特許取得が企業の資金調達やパフォーマンスにプラスの影響を与えていることを示す結果が得られたことは、今後もそのような企業に向けて、積極的な特許政策を実施することが望ましいことを示しているといえる。
