Xinhua Full Media+｜ The quality of the number of patents in colleges and universities achieve dual improvement

In order to accelerate the transformation of the scientific and technological achievements of colleges and universities to real productivity, the Ministry of Education introduced a number of reform explorations. In terms of improving the quality of the results, the evaluation system before patent application is implemented. "In the past, no matter whether a technology necessary to apply for patent protection or not, as long as the inventor submitted an application, colleges and universities will assist in the application in accordance with existing procedures, which has produced many patents that are not applied for innovation. Prior to the implementation of patent application evaluation The system is to decide whether to apply for a patent through evaluation, so as to retain a patent with high quality and prospects. "Lei Chaozi said.

In terms of strengthening policy incentives, the Ministry of Education has adjusted funding and reward policies. For example, stop funding for patent applications, greatly reduces and gradually cancel the rewards of patent authorization. At the same time, the inventor and college shall jointly bear the patent fee. If the inventor shall bear the patent fee, it may take double the transformation income to return the return and return it to the return. Methods increase incentives. "This is to hope to strengthen the sense of responsibility and endogenous power of the inventor, and improve the quality of patent." Lei Chaozi introduced that currently universities generally increase the rewards of results transformation, increase the award ratio to 70%, and some universities rewards 90% above.

In addition, the Ministry of Education advocates patent conversion through ordinary licensing rather than monopolized licenses. Lei Chaozi said that the permission fee collected by the monopoly permit is higher, and for enterprises, the capital pressure is greater, the risks are greater, and the decision -making process is more cautious. At the same time, the results are implemented by a company alone, which may be affected by factors such as the management and operation of the enterprise. The risk of failure is high. Once failed, the scientific and technological achievements may miss the best time to start the market. The general license not only reduces the cost of enterprise implementation, but also reduces the risk of failed results.

The Ministry of Education encourages the calculation method of the permitted fee of basic license fees to replace the one -time payment of the license fee, eliminating the concerns of the enterprise due to excessive permit fees, and at the same time enabled college researchers to obtain the revenue brought about by the transformation of results for a long time.
