This book examines how the implementation of knowledge and technology transfer as the Third Mission of academic science creates new incentives for academic patenting and triggers new patenting motives and strategies of researchers and organizations. It highlights how the complex regulatory interplay of the patent system, research policy, and self-governed academic communities creates new patent functions beyond their intended function as a protection for upstream inventions.

This book delves into the intricate dynamics of knowledge and technology transfer as the Third Mission of academic science, exploring its profound implications for academic patenting. By examining the ongoing implementation of these initiatives, the book uncovers not only the emergence of new incentives for patenting but also the emergence of novel patenting motives and strategies among researchers and organizations. Through a comprehensive analysis of these motives and strategies, the book highlights how the complex interplay between the patent system, research policy, and self-governed academic communities fosters the emergence of new patent functions. Beyond their traditional role as a protection for upstream inventions, patents now serve as a powerful signaling device for scientists to communicate their commitment and competence in the Third Mission.
As an exploratory study, this book combines qualitative empirical research with concepts and insights from diverse fields such as economics, law, political sciences, and regulation. This multidisciplinary approach allows the book to address a wide range of stakeholders interested in patenting incentives and motives and their impact on the functional change and regulatory effectiveness of patents in polycentric regulatory environments.
The book begins by providing a comprehensive overview of the Third Mission of academic science, highlighting its significance in driving innovation and societal progress. It then delves into the historical background and evolution of academic patenting, exploring the factors that have shaped its development and the challenges that have been encountered along the way.
The central focus of the book is on the motives and strategies of researchers and organizations in the context of academic patenting. It examines how the pursuit of academic patents is influenced by various factors, including the desire for recognition, the need for funding, the pressure to publish, and the desire to contribute to the public good. The book also explores the role of research institutions, government agencies, and industry in shaping the patenting landscape and the potential conflicts that may arise between different stakeholders.
To facilitate a deeper understanding of the dynamics at play, the book employs a range of empirical methods, including interviews, surveys, and case studies. These methods provide valuable insights into the experiences and perspectives of researchers, policymakers, and industry representatives, allowing the book to paint a comprehensive picture of the patenting landscape in academic science.
Throughout the book, the authors draw upon a wealth of theoretical frameworks and concepts to analyze the emerging patent functions and their implications. These frameworks include economic theories of innovation, legal theories of patent rights, political theories of regulation, and regulatory theories of innovation. By integrating these diverse perspectives, the book offers a holistic and comprehensive analysis of the patenting incentives and motives in academic science.
In conclusion, this book provides a valuable contribution to the literature on patenting incentives and motives in academic science. By exploring the complex interplay between knowledge and technology transfer, research policy, and self-governed academic communities, the book offers a rich and nuanced understanding of the emerging patent functions and their impact on the functional change and regulatory effectiveness of patents. The book is of particular interest to researchers, policymakers, industry representatives, and anyone else interested in understanding the dynamics of innovation and intellectual property in the academic sector.
