The course was specifically designed to connect technological research with education using patented technologies developed at the research faculties of a technical university in the Netherlands. We outline the structure and the main content of the course and explain the selection process of both the patents used in the course and the students admitted to the course. This program was initiated at Delft University of Technology in 2003 and has resulted in 10 startups that have commercialized new technologies and at least two additional dozen startups that are indirect spinoffs. To illustrate the potential of this approach, we describe the case of Holland Container Innovations, a company founded by students who developed a foldable sea container during the course.10acommercialization10aentrepreneurship education10amulti-disciplinary team work10apatents10astudent entrepreneurs10atechnology entrepreneurship10auniversity research1 aHartmann, Dap  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/85600617nas a2200205   4500008004100000022001400041245007900055210006900134260004200203300001000245490000600255653002000261653002600281653000700307653001200314653001300326653001500339100002100354856003600375       2012                        eng d  a1927-032100aTIM Lecture Series – Intellectual Property Paradigms for Global Business0 aTIM Lecture Series Intellectual Property Paradigms for Global Bu  aOttawabTalent First Networkc12/2012  a43-450 v210aglobal business10aintellectual property10aIP10apatents10astrategy10atrademarks1 aFreedman, Gordon  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/63800591nas a2200205   4500008003900000022001400039245006000053210005700113260004200170300000800212490000600220653002600226653003300252653000700285653000800292653001200300100001800312700001900330856003600349       2011                          d  a1927-032100aEditorial: Intellectual Property Rights (December 2011)0 aEditorial Intellectual Property Rights December 2011  aOttawabTalent First Networkc12/2011  a3-40 v110aintellectual property10aintellectual property rights10aIP10aIPR10apatents1 aMcPhee, Chris1 aCarbone, Peter  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/50001396nas a2200193   4500008003900000022001400039245007800053210006900131260004200200300001000242490000600252520080000258653001601058653002601074653003301100653001201133100002101145856003601166       2011                          d  a1927-032100aIntellectual Property Rights: Unlocking the Value of this New Asset Class0 aIntellectual Property Rights Unlocking the Value of this New Ass  aOttawabTalent First Networkc12/2011  a23-280 v13 aDiscussing the value of intellectual property (IP) has become a common theme in today’s mainstream press and is now central to the business strategy of a growing number of technology companies, both large and small, domestically and internationally. This focus on IP and intellectual property rights (IPR) is a trend that has developed over the last several years as a result of a convergence of factors including the growth of the patent monetization industry, ongoing reforms to U.S. patent law, the emergence of China and other countries in the Far East as technology-production hubs, and the advocacy of the “knowledge-centric” economy. In this article, we look at the monetization of patents and the emergence of a vibrant industry based on IPR as a new and highly prized asset class.10aasset class10aintellectual property10aintellectual property rights10apatents1 aHenry, Daniel, J  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/50402212nas a2200205   4500008003900000022001400039245006500053210006400118260004200182300000900224490000600233520162200239653001901861653002601880653002001906653001201926653001301938100001901951856003601970       2011                          d  a1927-032100aPatent Value: A Business Perspective for Technology Startups0 aPatent Value A Business Perspective for Technology Startups  aOttawabTalent First Networkc12/2011  a5-110 v13 aIn the last year, news headlines have highlighted record patent infringement settlements, multibillion dollar auctions of large corporate patent portfolios, and ongoing patent battles between key technology industry players. Despite this acknowledgment of the significant value of patents for large corporations, many small technology companies are understandably more focused on the near-term costs of obtaining a patent rather than future value. Costs may seem prohibitive to an early stage technology startup. Some software startups question whether patents are relevant to their business. 

In practice, effective intellectual property (IP) strategy and management is dependent on many factors, such as technology or industry sector, size and maturity of the business, technology lifecycle, and the business and market environment. IP strategy must be aligned to business strategy from the outset. By considering IP in the broader context of the overall business plan and the competitive environment, opportunities for generating increased return on R&D investment and added business value through patents or other forms of IP can be recognized early on. This approach ensures that a decision about whether or not to patent is driven by business reasons rather than budget constraints.

This article examines the costs and benefits of patents from the perspective of early-stage technology startups and growing businesses, and it provides some general guidance on best practices for developing an IP and patent activity plan and for building a patent portfolio that appropriately supports business objectives.10abusiness value10aintellectual property10apatenting costs10apatents10astrategy1 aWilton, Angela  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/50101596nas a2200217   4500008003900000022001400039245012300053210006900176260004200245300001000287490000600297520088900303653002801192653002701220653002001247653001201267653002201279100002201301700001901323856003601342       2011                          d  a1927-032100aPatents to Exclude vs. Include: Rethinking the Management of Intellectual Property Rights in a Knowledge-Based Economy0 aPatents to Exclude vs Include Rethinking the Management of Intel  aOttawabTalent First Networkc12/2011  a12-170 v13 aTraditional patent theory emphasizes the importance of patents for excluding imitators. This view is far too restrictive and is at odds with many empirical and theoretical works. Therefore, we propose an analysis of patent management that considers the properties of knowledge-based economies explicitly. Patents are thus shown to be critical instruments for coordinating innovative activities between firms. They not only exclude potential infringers, but also “include” all the heterogeneous stakeholders of the innovation process. Patents facilitate coordination via two mechanisms: they encourage the emergence of markets for technology (market coordination) and they play an important role in formal and informal inter-firm collaboration (non-market coordination). We also link firms’ patenting strategy with the characteristics of the technological regime of their sector.10aknowledge-based economy10amarkets for technology10aOpen innovation10apatents10aR&D collaboration1 aCohendet, Patrick1 aPénin, Julien  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/502
