Phase 1
University, Researchers
Research just got funded somehow, anyway, by government?
Occasional interactions with industry, ex-students
Industry
![Page 30: Technology transfer from the reseach base: Ingredients for success and current developments](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070601/577cce111a28ab9e788d38c9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Phase 2
University, Researchers
Technology Transfer Office
Industry
Increasing interactions with industry, technology companies, 2-way flows.Recognition of value of IP, creation of
TTOs
![Page 31: Technology transfer from the reseach base: Ingredients for success and current developments](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070601/577cce111a28ab9e788d38c9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Phase 3
University, Researchers
Technology Transfer Office
Industry
TTO’s mature, some thrive, many struggle.Research collaborations with Industry become far more important to researchers [why? weak
economy, pressure from government]
Researchers now view IP differently, as a means to research funding, not only TT deals
![Page 32: Technology transfer from the reseach base: Ingredients for success and current developments](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070601/577cce111a28ab9e788d38c9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
isis-innovation.com
Phase 4
University, Researchers
Technology Transfer Office
Spin-outs
TTO’s need to adopt more flexible models, to satisfy changing ways researchers view the use of IP, and
changing industry models, ‘Open Innovation’
Universities need to modify its expectations of the TTO. Will character of TTO’s change …?

Phase 5
University, Researchers
Technology Transfer Office
Industry
Universities respond to pressure for Impact, become far better a explaining benefits from public investment, TT
impact diluted.
University views TTO as smaller part of a bigger picture.

Phases - Implications• For Technology Transfer Offices• - may disappear where the university sees no economic value in its IP• - must [continue to] explain non-commercial benefits of the commercial route
• For Universities• - may lose the non-commercial benefits [Impact] of the commercial route • - will complain later when they miss the blockbuster
• For Government• - beware the ‘commercialisation effect’• - help universities understand why commercial route is good for them, for the non-
commercial reasons
• For Industry• - may miss out on commercial positions• - may pick up more technologies for free
