Abstract

Technology developers in academia tend to be short of professional knowledge and recognition of technology transfer strategies. It is even severe in Korea where the concept of employee's invention has just started to effect in academia. Wasteful contract negotiation disputes cannot only be painful but also can hamper better invention. The main purpose of this paper is to design guidelines for an optimal contract strategy for technology transfer from the perspective of the technology developer in academia, the intermediary and the receiver. Applying conjoint analysis, this study shows not only the relative importance of the attributes related to the technology transfer contract but also the most important conditions of the contract. It is expected that this study may improve the efficiency of technology transfer activities in academia in Korea.
