Abstract

Studies on academic patent commercialisation are well documented. However, spatial effects are seldom considered, which could lead to potentially misleading analytical results. This study addresses this concern by applying the spatial analysis method to investigate how university-level factors and commercialising academic patents are related. Using a comprehensive dataset of university patents from 1815 Chinese universities in 2016, we find that public research funding of universities, industrial research funding, the number of scientific research personnel, the number of monographs published, and the number of awarded achievements are positively related to the commercialisation of academic patents. However, the number of teaching and research personnel and the number of academic papers published are negatively related. There are positive spatial spillover effects in commercialising academic patents among neighbouring universities, but there will be negative spatial spillover effects in funding competition.

空间互动与学术专利商业化:中国经验

关于学术专利商业化的研究文献很多。然而，很少考虑空间效应，这可能导致潜在的误导性分析结果。本研究运用空间分析方法，探讨大学层面因素与学术专利商业化之间的关系。利用2016年中国1815所高校的综合专利数据，我们发现高校的公共科研经费、产业科研经费、科研人员数量、出版专著数量和奖励成果数量与学术专利的商业化呈正相关。然而，教学科研人员数量与学术论文发表数量呈负相关。相邻高校间学术专利商业化存在正向空间溢出效应，而资金竞争存在负向空间溢出效应。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
