Bridging over the “Death Valley” – HOW?

Modern relations between universities and industries :  New venture formation/Spin-offs  R&D agreements  Licensing deals Traditional:  Teaching and students practice  Individual entrepreneurs hip © Hagit Messer-Yaron, 2013

The Role of Governments

1.

Financial support for academic, basic research. Public support is essential for academic freedom.

2.

Intervention programs for “bridging the gap”.

3.

Legal infrastructure: intellectual property rights (IPR) laws, Taxations, innovation law, etc.

Higher Education in Israel Expanding system

 1989/90:

21

HEI (8 universities + 13 colleagues),

88,800

students.

 2010/11:

67

HEI, (8 universities + 36 academic colleagues, 23 pedagogical colleagues)

297,800

students.

All HEIs are independent legal entities; All but NBC are heavily supported by the government.

Commercialization of Knowhow Survey of technology transfer and IP companies 2008-2009  Approximately 400 new patent applications were filed each year in Israel and abroad by the TTCs(

approximately 94% of total applications filed abroad

).  Commercialization of TTCs focus almost exclusively on inventions.  Most of the revenues from sales of intellectual property (IP) and gross royalties received in 2009 came from Life Sciences and Medicine (approximately 92%).  All the TTCs have affirmed that the main means of protecting IP is applying for a patent. © Hagit Messer-Yaron, 2013

 Commercialization of Knowhow Survey of technology transfer and IP companies 2008-2009 (cont.) Since their establishment, TTCs have been involved in the establishment of

151 startup companies

, of which 44 startup companies are non-operational.

 In 2008-2009, approximately

1,000

IP invention disclosure reports were submitted by the researchers of various universities for examination by the TTCs; of those, the companies decided to protect approximately

700

.   Most commercialization done by the TTCs is to Israeli companies.

In Israel:

 Government’s involvement mainly by intervention programs.

 Each university decides on its own policy and regulations independently. However, they share common principles.  Each university has its own TT

C .

 TTCs are for-profit companies, own by the universities.

 TTCs are handling universities IP and are responsible for commercialization, following the university’s policy.

© Hagit Messer-Yaron, 2013

IP legislation (and more) in Israel

 The patent law (1967) defines “service invention” as one which has been invented by an employee as a result of his/her service to the employer.

 The law doesn’t cover many aspects of academic life , as: students, visitors, sabbaticals, retired stuff, etc.

 Thus, universities had to regulate it internally.

 No legislation w.r.to industrial R&D projects done in universities. It is up to the parties to agree on the conditions.

 In general, government doesn’t claim ownership of publicly sponsored research.

© Hagit Messer-Yaron, 2013

© Hagit Messer-Yaron, 2013

The rules – main common principles:

 Researchers must disclose to the university any research of commercial potential.

 Universities own the IP of “institute inventions” (service invention).

 Institute inventions are discoveries of employees and others, related to the university.

 Institute inventions are commercialized solely by the TTC.

 Commercialization revenues are shared by the inventors (40 50%; 50-60%) and the university.

 If the TTC chooses not to file for patent, the inventors can do it at their own expense.

Government’s involvement in university-industry relations

 Under the responsibility of the office of the Chief Scientist at the ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor (OCS).

 Different

intervention programs

for university-

Summary

 Most Israeli Universities had Technology Transfer policy and programs before the BDA of 1980.

 The government has not been involved in the universities TT policy and/or implementation.

 IL TT policy is (was) VERY successful, with top universities leading both in academic achievements (e.g., the Shanghai ranking) and in TT revenues.  The key for success is a

RESPONSIBLE technology transfer

policy and implementation.
