In late years, university-industry research collaborating organizations are organized, and the efforts in various fields have been done for the purpose of realizing inventions and new technologies by the university researchers industrial application or social problems.
I suspect that many of the people involved are struggling because their efforts are not rewarded and they are not getting good reviews. Consider the problems and ideals of technology transfer from the viewpoint of “management of intellectual production” rather than from “organizational theory”. The forms of technology transfer between academia and industry can be broadly divided into ideas originating from universities and intellectual property resulting from joint research with companies. Results from research associations or public research funds belong to the latter category. In other words, research ideas originating from the unique ideas of university researchers are “cutting-edge ideas”, and are distinguished from other “outgoing ideas”. Here, we consider technology licensing organizations (TLOs) that have been approved by the government as “university-internal” TLOs that belong to “approved TLOs,” and consider their history, management, and later and current status. Other corporate organizations (stock companies, limited companies) will be discussed on another occasion as their financial structures are different. In the midst of the demand for technology that supports the creation of businesses with transformational impact, the source should be considered.
