"Our primary empirical finding is that the shift in rights from researcher to university led to an
approximate 50% drop in the rate of start-ups by university researchers. This drop appears (1) in
a simple pre-post analysis of university start-up rates, (2) when compared to background rates of
start-ups in Norway, and (3) when analyzed at the level of the individual Norwegian citizen,
controlling for fixed and time-varying individual-level characteristics.
We further find that
university researchers substantially curtailed their patenting after the reform, with patent rates
falling by similar magnitudes as seen with start-ups. In addition to these effects on the quantity
of innovative output, we find evidence for decreased quality of both start-ups and patents, where
university start-ups exhibit less growth and university patents receive fewer citations after the
reform, compared to controls. Overall, the reform appeared to have the opposite effect as
intended. "
Jednoduše snažit se z univerzity udělat vývojové centrum je ptákovina která škodí jak univerzitním činnostem, tak přenosu technologií. Daniel Münich to musí vědět a nechápu, proč místo věčné kritiky nenavrhne změnu zákona ve směru zřízení profesorského privilegia.
