Latest revision as of 20:11, 19 April 2010
Answer the questions:
- What are the 5 top Universities in this field?
- Correlate them with their main outputs (Data. Narratives. Tools)
- Understand and identify cases where these universities are “experimenting” or “adopting” commons based approach. Are they adopting OA policies, for instance? Are they adopting Social Responsible License approaches?
- Identify these cases and treat them as entities that will also be placed in our mapping device (the quadrants)
- Identify what universities are the “Microsofts” of the field and what companies are the “IBMs” of the field (Use the questionnaire to guide your research when appropriate - Carol will select specific relevant questions)
Introduction
- American universities are granted over 3,000 U.S. patents each year and maintain a portfolio of over 40,000 patents (see Owen-Smith & Powell, 2003).
- Universities ad governments, not companies seem to be the primary driver of patents in the world:
