Research on technology contribution evaluation model for commercialization

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to calculate the quantitative and qualitative contribution of intellectual property rights owned by startups for successful commercialization. In the 4th industrial revolution economy, intellectual property rights, which play an important role in job creation and economic growth, play a very important role for startups. In particular, intellectual property rights are the most important asset for startups, and it is necessary to promote the sustainable growth of startups through efficient intellectual property management. This study evaluated the relative contribution of technology, human resources, and market assets, which are the sources of intangible assets for successful business start-ups through intellectual property transfer and technology trade. The contribution of the case companies to intangible assets was calculated by comprehensively judging four technologies related to each other. To this end, we find a strategy for the successful commercialization of intellectual property rights owned by startups by calculating the relative contribution of technical assets, human assets, and market assets, which are the sources of intangible assets. The contribution of the example company to intangible assets is calculated by comprehensively judging the four related intellectual property rights of the startup. In future research, we look forward to a follow-up study that can help companies make strategic decisions by comparing and analyzing various companies in consideration of industry and size. © 2022 The Authors.
