The most interesting presentation at last week’s ACCTCanada Directors Forum was, in my opinion, on open innovation by Angus Livingstone,
UILO at UBC. Much of the discussion by other presenters focused on
patents and other control mechanisms, while Angus showed the shifting
paradigms that we are experiencing in university knowledge transfer. He
explained that the main shift over the next five years will be from closed to open innovation, in parallel with shifts from outputs to impacts and from transactions to relationships. Angus highlighted the old paradigm:
- Patents
- Licenses
- Spin-offs
- Proprietary industry research funding
