活动简介：
Exclusivity is a key concern when designing a licensing contract, yet the organizational factors that influence the exclusive provision of university licenses remain underexplored. This study provides a deeper understanding of this question by developing a balanced framework that considers both the supply and demand sides of licensing deals. Furthermore, we posit that university prestige affects both a university’s ability to conduct non-exclusive licensing and a firm’s incentive to obtain an exclusive license, thereby shaping their joint willingness to license (non-)exclusively. We also examine how technology transfer office (TTO) experience and prior collaboration between a university and a firm moderate this relationship. We use a dataset consisting of 6,653 licensed patents owned by 117 representative Chinese universities to test the hypotheses. We find that an inverted U-shaped relationship exists between university prestige and the likelihood of exclusive licensing. Moreover, the moderating effect of TTO experience is partially supported while that of prior collaboration is fully supported. Our findings generate important implications for the relative social impacts of exclusive and non-exclusive licensing of technology inventions as well as the management of university licensing.
