Migration and Innovation: Learning from Patent and Inventor Data
Research on international migration and innovation relies heavily on inventor and patent data, with "migrant inventors" attracting a great deal of attention, especially for what concerns their role in easing the international transfer of knowledge. This hides the fact that many of them move to their host country before starting their inventive career or even before completing their education. We discuss the conceptual and practical difficulties t…
Highly skilled and well connected: Migrant inventors in cross-border M&As
International migration and innovation diffusion: An eclectic survey
International migration and innovation diffusion: an eclectic survey. Regional Studies. In the new era of international mass migration, the role of highly skilled individuals in diffusing innovation has attracted considerable attention. Using economic history studies as a template, the paper organizes several strands of the literature around three main themes: the distinction between mobility and migration; the directions of flows; and their cont…
Foreign-origin inventors in the USA: Testing for Diaspora and Brain Gain Effects
We assess the role of ethnic ties in the diffusion of technical knowledge using a database of patents filed by US-resident inventors of foreign origin, identified by name analysis. We consider 10 leading source countries, both Asian and European, of highly skilled migration to the USA and test whether foreign inventors' patents are disproportionately cited by (i) co-ethnic migrants ('diaspora' effect), and (ii) inventors residing in their country…
The Ownership of Academic Patents and Their Impact: Evidence from Five European Countries
Cet article compare la valeur et l’impact des brevets universitaires dans cinq pays européens avec des cadres institutionnels différents : Danemark, France, Italie, Pays-Bas, et Suède. Un brevet académique est défini comme tel quand au moins un professeur ou un maître de conférences figure parmi ses inventeurs, indépendamment du propriétaire. En effet, la plupart des propriétaires sont des entreprises commerciales, suivies par les universités, le…
Academic engagement and commercialisation: A review of the literature on university–industry relations
A considerable body of work highlights the relevance of collaborative research, contract research, consulting and informal relationships for university–industry knowledge transfer. We present a systematic review of research on academic scientists’ involvement in these activities to which we refer as ‘academic engagement’. Apart from extracting findings that are generalisable across studies, we ask how academic engagement differs from commercialis…
Mobility of skilled workers and co-invention networks: An anatomy of localized knowledge flows
This article illustrates the contribution of mobile inventors and networks of inventors to \nthe diffusion of knowledge across firms and within cities or states. It is based upon an \noriginal data set on US inventors’ patent applications at the European Patent Office, \nin the fields of drugs, biotechnology and organic chemistry. The study combines the \nmethodology originally proposed by Jaffe et al. (1993, Quarterly Journal of Economics, \n108…
