  1. The Relationship of Universities and the Private Sector in Developing Countries Partnership for Promoting Innovation and Managing Risk September 12th, 2007 JOSÉ MIGUEL FLORES ACUÑA

  2. SUMMARY 1. CHILE AND INNOVATION • DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY AND APPLIED SCIENCE • ADMINISTRATION OF IP AND TT IN UNIVERSITIES AND RESEARCH CENTERS • RELATIONSHIP UNIVERSITY – PRIVATE SECTOR • CONCLUSION

  3. In 2005 and 2006, Chile occupied 27th place in the ranking of global competitiveness of the World Economic Forum. However, it is urgent that some weaknesses that strongly affect innovation are overcome. Performance of Chile in the ranking of global competitiveness in the World Economic Forum (WEF): IS CHILE READY FOR DEVELOPMENT?

  4. PUBLIC POLICY IN THE PROMOTION OF INNOVATION Mining Royalty 1% of the GDP in R&D, 2007 2004 Data

  5. PUBLIC POLICY IN THE PROMOTION OF INNOVATION Spending Structure in R&D 2006 Data National Council on Innovation 2003 Data

  6. PUBLIC POLICY IN THE PROMOTION OF INNOVATION Private spending vs. public spending Public policy has applied pressure for “industrial mentoring” 2005 Data

  7. FURTHER INVESTMENT IN R+D

  8. Two tendencies mark the future – The advance of globalization a. New opportunities b. New competitors – The engines of competitiveness and development are: a. The quality of human capital b. Knowledge and innovation DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY

  9. APPLIED SCIENCE BUSINESS UNIVERSITY STATE

  10. APPLIED SCIENCE Ministry of Economy, CORFO Ministry of Education, CONICYT Suggest delineations for a national innovation strategy Universities, Technological Institutes, Businesses Other Ministries (MOP, MINAGRO, MINSAL) INNOVATION COUNCIL

  11. FACTORS NECESSARY FOR ADMINISTRATION OF UNIVERSITY IP AND TT Research: Qualified Funds: to develop R+D (Public or internal) Facilities: Internal or external Research results: Available Knowledge of the rights of researchers: Clear Policies of: Protection and Commercialization With Companies: Interaction With Brokers: Associations

  12. INDUSTRY TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY INTERNAL RESEARCH • UNIVERSITIES • INNOVATION CENTERS EXTERNAL RESEARCH PROFESSIONALISM + RESOURCES

  13. KEY ASPECTS FOR TRANSFERENCE • Trust and good channels of communication and relations between the parties • Contractual policies to manage technologies, for the purpose of motivating creation • Negotiation policies based on interests • Property policies of patents • Tax considerations • Majority of patents are transferred before they are granted • Business and marketing planning

  14. UNIVERSITY CASE The history of a bio-skyn……………….. Last Conference, I showed a marvellous Tech Transfer model from University to a private laboratory Today just fights between researchers and private investors CONCLUSION: We Learned the Lesson

  15. Invention: Mouthwash from Chamomile extract with antibacterial qualities (private University) State of the art: Other patents can only claim the use of Chamomile for flavoring purposes Protection: Processand Product Patent Commercialization: License granted by the University to manufacture the product UNIVERSITY CASE

  16. Invention: Structural wall developed by a private company, of low cost, high resistance, energy efficient and ease of construction State of the art: Conventional structural walls of reinforced concrete at high cost Protection: Process and Product Patent Commercialization: 35% of rights were transferred to the University, which currently grants licenses to construction companies UNIVERSITY / PRIVATE SECTOR CASE

  17. Invention: SalmonOral Genetic Vaccine against Viral Necrotic Pancreatic Infection (Private University) State of the Art: No Salmon Oral genetic Vaccines Protection: Process and Product Patent Commercialization: Spin Off company created for researchers + Multinational Company who produce fish food UNIVERSITY / SPIN OFF

  18. Participants: Public University, 2 private companies that are leaders in forestry matters, a private foundation, a group of small forestry companies Objective: R+D in forestry genomics and technological transference in said matters Financing: Public Funds 70%, private funds 30% Structure: Corporation PRIVATE SECTOR CASE: UNIVERSITY ENTERPRENURIAL CONSORTIUM

  19. Characteristics: Private company, with its own resources, finances part of the protection of inventions Structure: Part of a Holding Company among which is found a law firm certified by the State to provide protection and commercialization of technology services through public funds Cases: Currently works in cases related to the early detection of Alzheimer’s and technologies connected with copper PRIVATE COMPANY: TECHNOLOGICAL BROKER
