TLDR

The existence of geographically mediated "spillovers" from university research to commercial innovation is explored using state-level time-series data on corporate patents, corporate R&D, and university research. A significant effect of university research on corporate patents is found, particularly in the areas of drugs and medical technology, and electronics, optics, and nuclear technology. In addition, university research appears to have an indirect effect on local innovation by inducing industrial R&D spending. Copyright 1989 by American Economic Association.read more

The Influence of University R & D Expenditures on New Business Formations and Employment Growth
TL;DR: In this article, the authors hypothesize that new firms tend to form in areas characterized by high levels of university research and development (R&D) expenditures and that these births will in turn stimulate the local economy by generating increases in employment level and growth.

Patent Statistics as Economic Indicators: A Survey
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey on the use of patent data in economic analysis, focusing on the patent data as an indicator of technological change and concluding that patent data remain a unique resource for the study of technical change.

Technological Opportunity and Spillovers of R&D: Evidence from Firms' Patents, Profits and Market Value
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present evidence that firms' patents, profits and market value are systematically related to the technological position of firms' research programs, and that firms are seen to "move" in technology space in response to the pattern of contemporaneous profits at different positions.

Econometric Models for Count Data with an Application to the Patents-R&D Relationship
TL;DR: This paper developed and adapted statistical models of counts (nonnegative integers) in the context of panel data and used them to analyze the relationship between patents and R&D expenditures. But their model is not suitable for the analysis of large-scale data sets.

Technological Opportunity and Spillovers of R&D: Evidence from Firms' Patents, Profits, and Market Value
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of exogenous variations in the state of technology (technological opportunity) and of the R&D of other firms (spillovers of r&D) on the productivity of firms' R&Ds were quantified.
