| Research Abstract |
Japan has been suffering from the long-term sluggish economy since 1990s. Under such circumstances, it has become important to successfully transfer the outcome of publicly-funded research to the private sector for commercialization, which promotes industrial innovations and consequently, improves the national living standard. Based on panel data of firms' patents, university research, and technology transfer activities of local public technology centers administrated by the local authorities, this study quantitatively evaluated how publicly-funded research in Japan spilled over into private R&D. Several theoretical and policy implications from empirical results were discussed.
