OUTLINE

The process of extracting economic value out of new products, processes, and knowledge through the use of IP rights, licensing agreements, and the creation of spin-off companies (Joly et al., 2010)
COMMERCIALIZATION
Moving advances in knowledge and technology into the commercial stream, where they can be put to work for the public good (NRC Report, 2010).
TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER
![Page 4: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Modest accomplishments in patenting and licensing activities • Almost no revenue generation • Spin-off companies in difficulty • Transfer problem in the
biotechnology sector • Similar results in other
developed countries
ECONOMIC IMPACT OF COMMERCIALIZATION
![Page 5: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Data witholding?
• Conflicts of interest?
• Proliferation of MTAs?
• Blocking patents?
ACADEMIC ISSUES (COMMERCIALIZATION)
![Page 6: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
A broad concept encompassing all channels that contributes to ensuring that the outcomes of scientific knowledge add value beyond the scientific domain (Benneworth and Jongbloed, 2010).
In this context, the importance of both economic and social values should be recognized (NCHA, 2010).
Valorization is broader than commercialization, which is motivated primarily by profit (Slaughter and Leslie 1997, 2001; Bridgman and Wilmott, 2007).
VALORIZATION
![Page 7: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
MAIN CHANNELS OF VALORIZATION
![Page 8: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1 - Unite stakeholders behind a common, broader innovation strategy
1 A) Valorization or 1 B) Commercialization
rebranded
POLICY OPTIONS
![Page 9: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2- Improve open information sharing to promote harmonization
2 A) Development of a national repository
and/or2 B) Creation of university organizations
to coordinate valorization activities
POLICY OPTIONS
![Page 10: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3- Reshape the mandate of TTOs, ILOs and their equivalents
3 A) Broaden the mandate of TTOs or3 B) Create specific offices for
each channel of the valorization process
POLICY OPTIONS
![Page 11: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Involve the private sector! • Use research policies to promote
valorization (research funders – universities)• Develop common
metrics/evaluation tools to measure valorization activities • Use IT to promote access and
harmonization
PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS
![Page 12: Yann Joly (McGill University), Angus Livingstone (University of British Columbia), Edward S. Dove (McGill University) GENOME CANADA, GPS 2011 Series September.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e0e5503460f94af77a7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Do you agree that commercialization has not succeeded in extracting optimal social and economic value from university research in biotechnology?
• In this Brief, we took the position that promoting innovation in genomic research does not necessitate a specific strategy different from the one that applicable to other types of academic science research.
Do you agree with this position? What improvements specific to the promotion of
innovation in biotechnology research could be suggested in this Brief?
FUTURE RESEARCH QUESTIONS
