User Requirements for TTOs • Spotting of Collaboration between Academia and Industry • Understanding where collaborations occurred and when; • Initial Market overview to focus searches; • Market landscape and size; • Strategy for spin-outs, R&D, or licensing options. • Industry involvement with experts, including author;
User Requirements for TTOs • Spotting of Collaboration between Academia and Industry • Understanding where collaborations occurred and when; • Initial Market overview to focus searches; • Market landscape and size; • Strategy for spin-outs, R&D, or licensing options. • Industry involvement with experts, including author; • Cross-Matching Patent and Publication; • Timeline; • Citations. • Geographical Information Requirements:
User Requirements for IP Management • Addressing the Control of the IP. • History of inventor, and technology • Possible other research efforts in same principle. • Dissemination of IP in past and future • Controlling where the IP is going, and has been. • Geographical analysis of activity in IP protection • Where protection is needed.
User Requirements for IP Management Requirements: Timeline; Author information; Geographical information. • Addressing the Control of the IP. • History of inventor, and technology • Possible other research efforts in same principle. • Dissemination of IP in past and future • Controlling where the IP is going, and has been. • Geographical analysis of activity in IP protection • Where protection is needed.
Conclusions Technology Transfer Officer IP Management • Focus for Prior Art Search; • Tool for controlling the Intellectual Property; • Patent Geographical Protection. • Focus for all analysis: • Publication Analysis: Identifying Experts in the field. (Technology Stage, IP Management, Applications, Patentability); • Patent Analysis: Identifying Industrial Players in the field. (IP Management, Patentability, Market Research, Industrial Partners); • Improvements would allow overview of technology field, both market, and research perspective; • Strategic overview of market.
