| Abstract: | " Objective - While managing the innovation activity, it is necessary to base it on reliable sources of scientific and technical information, including patent research. However, the existing variety and scale of patent databases necessitate the development of an instrument that enables processing large volumes of patent information within limited timeframes. In these conditions, it is necessary to use machine learning (ML) technology to create a solid information base for management decisions. Methodology - The objective of the study presented in the paper was to propose an algorithm for processing patent data to improve the quality of patent research. The essence of the algorithm is that all necessary patents are ranked according to a relevance criterion, after which the researcher analyzes the already essential patents. Findings - The paper envisages the algorithm's practical realization using a gravity-driven power generator case. Findings indicate that the proposed new instrument enables a significant reduction in processing time for patent data. Novelty - The paper contributes to innovation management by integrating patent analytics and machine learning. Type of Paper - Empirical" |

| Abstract: | This report addresses a critical gap in policy discussions on the standard-essential patent (SEP) licensing ecosystem by examining the perspectives of startups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in India. Global policy debates on SEPs typically focus on balancing the interests of SEP holders and implementers, while overlooking the unique challenges faced by emerging firms in intellectual property creation, monetisation, participation in standard-setting processes, and navigating the complexities of SEP licensing. Our analysis finds that many economic concerns surrounding SEPs are overstated when assessed against real-world evidence. Industries built on standardized technologies have thrived under the current SEP framework, where fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory (FRAND) commitments have supported innovation and interoperability without imposing undue burdens on consumers or follow-on innovators. The key challenge for India lies not in systemic flaws within the global SEP regime, but in strengthening its domestic capacity to effectively engage with and benefit from this ecosystem. The empirical evidence we examined in this report does not support claims of systemic market failure in SEP licensing. While some inefficiencies and transactional frictions remain, these can be addressed through market-based mechanisms rather than regulation, thereby preserving incentives for innovation. Based on these insights, we recommend targeted policy measures to bolster India's innovation landscape. These include institutional support to increase the participation of Indian firms in standard-setting activities, development of a robust intellectual property regime that enhances competitiveness, and the provision of efficient pathways for resolving SEP disputes, such as fast-tracked mediation and arbitration to avoid protracted litigation. By providing a nuanced, evidence-based assessment, this report seeks to inform policies that may empower Indian startups and SMEs to play a strategic role in the global SEP ecosystem and strengthen India's overall innovation capacity. |

| Abstract: | This report presents a patent-based indicator to measure the innovation output of the bioeconomy, which is a key driver for the European Union's transition to a sustainable and circular economy. The analysis covers the period 2008-2020 and provides insights into the trends and patterns of bioeconomy-related patenting activity in the EU. The results show that the share of bioeconomy patents in the EU patent portfolio is modest but significant, with a mixed growth trend over the observed period. The proposed indicator could be a useful tool for policymakers to monitor and promote the uptake of the bioeconomy in the EU. |

| Abstract: | This study underscores the EU's progress and challenges in the twin transition, offering insights into the EU's competitive position and potential areas for policy action. Despite twin patents filed by EU players increasing on average of 14% annually since 2009, the number of patents is still far behind those from China and the US, clear leaders in twin technologies innovations. China and the US host also most co-applicants for patent filings of EU-based players, and the study underscores potential dependencies on Chinese partnerships. |

| Abstract: | In this Working Paper, the aim is to examine in depth the commercialization processes of university-generated inventions. The explorative analysis draws on primary and secondary data obtained from the internal invention disclosure database of the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) for the period 2000-2015. This dataset is both exceptional and highly exclusive, as most universities do not make comparable information publicly available, often compelling technology transfer researchers to rely on proxies and indirect measures. Access to this privileged dataset enables the use of original, unprocessed information and thereby offers a direct, real-time view of how university inventions progress toward market application. Given the confidential nature of this data, the data analysis remains at an aggregated level, deliberately omitting specific firm names or exact years of invention or patent licensing (that is the precondition under which DTU shared this exclusive data). |

| Abstract: | As a condition of receiving U.S. federal grants, institutions of higher educations must assign the federal government a nonexclusive license to make certain uses of works developed under an award, as part of the U.S. federal policy of providing immediate taxpayer access to taxpayer funded research. In order to comply with this requirement, the institution must have the right to make that assignment of rights. The nature of authorship in educational settings has long been the subject of confusion and some controversy, due to the ongoing question of whether faculty scholarship constitutes work made for hire. This in turn causes uncertainty as to whether, absent adequate policies, institutions have sufficient rights to comply with federal grants. The law may one day be clarified, but institutions need policies that work now. This paper first describes the current state of the law, including the various questions that arise with licensing use of scholarly works under different theories of copyright ownership. It identifies the characteristics of institutional IP policies that account for any of three possible future outcomes, allowing institutions to reliably comply with grant obligations without fear of legal reprisal. The paper concludes with recommendations for such policies, which in many cases would require little or no fundamental alteration of the relationship between faculty and their institutions. |
