2. Models and Missions for Transfer Offices
Gilles Capart, Proton Europe, and Jon Sandelin, Stanford OTL 2004
• The Open Science Model: academics publish and industry
patents
• The Licence Model: universities license to industry
• The Innovation Model: universities form part of innovation eco-
system
3. ‘It is relatively more difficult to license out a university invention in Europe than in the
US. The European market is much more fragmented ..and the density of technology-
based companies is less important. Many licenses from European universities are
actually executed with US groups, and do not benefit the European economy.
The innovation model is comparatively more developed in certain European
countries, notably the UK, Scandinavian countries, Netherlands and Belgium, than in
the US. The potential benefits for the public and for the university will also be larger
and more regional in character. The basic difference is that European universities
have to be more directly involved in the innovation process than their US
counterparts for achieving the same result.
Models of, and Missions for, Transfer Offices from Public Research Organizations by Gilles Capart and Jon Sandelin (2004)
5. Nature and scale of knowledge exchange mechanisms
between academics and external organisations
6. HEFCE: Transition from Technology
Transfer to Knowledge Exchange
Where we have come from… Where we are going to…
STEM focus All disciplines
Simple ‘transmission’ model of knowledge Dynamic exchange model
(engagement, not outreach)
Wealth creation Innovation, productivity, quality of
life, cultural enrichment, civic dev,
community regeneration etc.
Large, multi-national businesses Spectrum from global to local/
regional and all users

Numbers in bubbles are the % of academics engaging in that mechanism at least three times in the last three years for problem solving, people based and public space and community activities; for commercialisation mechanisms, it is the % engaging at least once in the last three yearsSource: Adapted from PACEC/CBR (2009) The Evolution of the Infrastructure of the Knowledge Exchange System, a report to HEFCE
