Policy Before 1980Policy Before 1980
Federal Government retained ownership of patent rights.
Only non‐exclusive license available.
Rationale: –
Public tax dollars paid for the invention; it
should therefore be available for anyone to use

Characteristics of Inventions by a UniversityCharacteristics of Inventions by a University
Commercial potential usually unknown
fewer than half of disclosed inventions are licensed.
Licensed inventions are embryonic (far from being products that generate revenue)
12% of licensed technologies were ready for commercial use at time of license;
over 75% of inventions licensed were no more than proof of concepts (no prototype available or only lab scale prototype at the time of license).

Characteristics of Inventions by a UniversityCharacteristics of Inventions by a University
To develop University Innovations into Products:
Significant additional expenditures required for product development;
Successful commercialization often requires cooperation and involvement by inventor and
licensee.

Results of Policy Before 1980Results of Policy Before 1980
Companies could not obtain exclusive rights.
Competitors could later acquire licenses and
then manufacture and sell the same products.
Companies were reluctant to invest in
developing new products and markets.

Results of Policy Before 1980Results of Policy Before 1980
Many printed publications.
Little conversion into products.
In 1980, the government held title to approximately 28,000 patents
Fewer than 5% had been licensed
Few of those licenses related to commercial products

Taxpayers did not benefit from
New, useful products
New jobs
Economic activity resulting from the manufacture and sale of these products.
Congress was concerned about competitiveness in the global economy.

Policy Goals:
Promote economic development;
Enhance U.S. competitiveness through innovation;
Benefit public by encouraging commercialization of technologies that would otherwise not be
developed into products due to lack of incentives.

Measures of ReturnMeasures of Return
The benefit of increased life expectancy in the U.S. as
a result of advances in health care creates annual net gains of about $2.4 trillion.
If only 10 percent of these increases in value ($240
billion) are the result of NIH‐funded medical research, it indicates a payoff of about 15 times the
taxpayers’
annual NIH investment of $16 billion.
