A holistic approach to R&D products' evaluation for commercialization under open innovations is developed. The approach is tested on the example of the device of the interferometric determination of the refractive index of crystalline materials in the optical range. The proposed approach will...

The rabbit industry has a lot of livelihood and economic potentials. However, constraints such as inadequate production of rabbit to meet customer demand serve as hindrances to the growth of the industry. Commercialization of rabbit production will increase rabbit products which will be...

In recent years, the coming of the entrepreneurial university has brought about a third role in academia, which involves greater visible exchange of academics with society and industry. In this paper, the authors investigate to what extent individual and organisational factors influence the...

The pandemic forced the entire civilization to adapt to the new normal. Covid-19 made people reimagine and recalibrate their ways of working. The field of IPR was no different. The pandemic forced dramatic changes in the IPR regime, especially, Patents, as at the helm of battling the pandemic...

The pursuit of commercialization is at the core of economic activity, and limited commercialization success is generally ascribed to the lower scalability or potential of the venture. Drawing on the anti-profit-taking socio-institutional perspective and innovation resistance theory,...

This paper explores the impact of industrial management incubation centers on the commercialization of innovative enterprises. The research results show that incubation centers can promote the commercialization of innovative enterprises by providing various forms of resource support. Among them,...

Firms often struggle with the successful commercialization of innovations, and there is a need for reliable predictors. Prior research suggests that intellectual property (IP) rights play a key role in the commercialization of innovations. However, to what extent can IP rights be used to predict...

Poverty remains a substantial threat in rural areas of many developing countries, and solving this problem requires an in-depth understanding of the income generating capacity that determines poverty. This paper examines the impact of agricultural commercialization on the capability of rural...

A holistic approach to R&D products' evaluation for commercialization under open innovations is developed. The approach is tested on the example of the device of the interferometric determination of the refractive index of crystalline materials in the optical range. The proposed approach will...

This paper contributes to the smallholder agriculture commercialisation literature by applying the Theory of Planned Behaviour in an under-researched developing country context. The study examines the influence of attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control on the Scaling-Up...

We investigate the relation between commercial real estate (CRE) returns and regional innovativeness and find that regions with more innovation exhibit higher total returns on commercial property. And, when we investigate the extent to which income return and capital return on commercial...

Users can develop innovations which will benefit other people and contribute to firm’s innovation capability. However, user innovation often fails to diffuse. In this study, we take the perspective of vocational and retirement studies to analyze whether the older age (60+ years old) of the...

In The Nature of the Firm, Ronald Coase explains how firms represent a suspension of the market mechanism. The allocation of activities depends on the relative costs of organizing activities within the firm versus direct reliance on the market. Despite Coase’s insight, economists often treat...

We analyze the influence of two contradicting settings on the success in the academic spin-off creation process. Scientists, who are embedded in the academic setting, have to reach out and adapt to the logics of the commercial setting to successfully found their firm. However, along this...

Commercialization of research output and patenting is a topic that has triggered the broad interest of both academics and practitioners globally. In Kenya for instance, universities, in general, have been criticized for not undertaking (relevant) research or for focusing on ‘blue-sky’...

Understanding the factors that drive the successful commercialisation of indigenous innovation in Sub-Saharan African economies is still limited. From both policy and theoretical perspectives, regulation is one factor that remains crucial for the successful commercialisation of innovation....

Indonesian rice production has exhibited a positive increasing trend over the years. On the other hand, rice retail prices tend to fluctuate, even though the country has imported rice. One reason for this is that not all of the rice produced is sold to the market or marketed surplus. The...

Innovation has been and continues to be recognised as central to promoting and supporting sustainable economic development; as such, South Africa has set the goal of becoming a knowledge economy. This is an economy that succeeds in producing knowledge and transforming itself into a...

We examine how industry-university collaboration (IUC) enhances the commercialization of corporate innovation using a comprehensive dataset of 93,303 industrial firms and 153 notable research universities in China. Measuring IUC with the occurrence and frequency of patents co-assigned to both...

The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates how vital it is for the Alberta government to incorporate precision health (PH) planning into its public health ecosystem. Public health shocks demand quick thinking, rapid adaptation and good decision-making driven by data. PH offers all that and more, and not...

This paper examines the dynamics of growth and decline in technology commercialization with infrastructure constraints. We focus on technologies with compelling value propositions, but with large enabling-infrastructure requirements. Examples are shown and similarity in patterns is discussed

Inventors generally know more about their inventions than what is written down in patent applications. Because they possess this tacit knowledge, inventors may need to play an active role when patents are commercialized. We build on Arora (1995) and model firm-inventor cooperation in the...

En este documento se realiza un análisis cuantitativo y cualitativo de la mercantilización de la salud en México con el objetivo de caracterizar el sistema de salud y proporcionar información básica para avanzar hacia su desmercantilización, de manera que el sistema concretice e...

The challenges of disruptive innovations have gained significant attention from both academics and practitioners, commercialization being one of the most critical phases. At the same time, however, it is the less studied area of disruptive innovation. Therefore, this article examined scholarly...

This article examines the involvement of agricultural and life science faculty at U.S. land grant universities in two types of university-industry relations: academic engagement (sponsored research, industry collaborations, and presentations), academic commercialization (patenting, licensing,...

This paper estimates the effect of a patent grant on the likelihood that an invention will progress to different commercialization stages using survey data on 3,162 inventions which have been the subject of a patent application. We found that about 40 percent of all inventions advanced to the...

Routinely granted injunctions during patent lawsuits have been regarded as a significant obstacle to firm innovation. We use the 2006 Supreme Court ruling in eBay v. MercExchange that reduced injunction likelihood in cases related to information and communications technology (ICT) patents to...
