交易成本视域下嵌入关系对高校专利转移的作用机理研究

On the Mechanism of Embedded Relationships in University Patent Transfers Based on Transaction Cost Theory

摘要:

高校待转移专利多为高校独立申请而非校企合作申请,挖掘此部分专利转移背后隐含规律并从经济视角解析其作用机理,对盘活高校专利具有积极意义。本文立足于交易成本理论,从网络嵌入和社会嵌入评价维度,选取以刚性方式起作用的前期合作指标和以柔性方式起作用的学科软实力指标,以我国高校在燃料电池和抗肿瘤药物领域独立申请的已转移专利为数据样本,对嵌入关系的作用机理进行了深入研究。结果表明：校企嵌入关系在打破信息不对称、降低交易成本方面起着决定性作用,高校应充分利用嵌入关系扫除专利转移过程中的障碍,促进科技成果向现实生产力的转化。

Abstract:

Most of the patents to be transferred in universities are independent applications of itself rather than cooperative applications with enterprises. Exploring the underlying patterns behind the transfer of these patents and analyzing their operational mechanisms from an economic perspective is of positive significance for revitalizing university patents. Based on transaction cost theory, from the two evaluation dimensions of network embeddedness and social embeddedness, select the early cooperation index working in a rigid way and the discipline soft power index working in a flexible way, and take the independent applications and transferred patents of universities in the field of fuel cells and anti-tumor drugs as data samples to conduct a study on the impact of the existing university-enterprise embeddedness relationship. The embedded relationship between universities and enterprises plays a decisive role in addressing information asymmetry and reducing transaction costs. Universities should make full use of the embedded relationship to overcome obstacles in the patent transfer process, facilitating the transformation of scientific achievements into real productive forces.
