Networks of Inventors in the Chemical Industry
نویسنده
چکیده
By using extremely detailed data on European chemical patents, this work focuses on the micro level of research networks. It examines the networks of inventors for the development of innovations. It studies whether the firm or the geographical proximity among inventors influences the probability that inventors collaborate, and the attributes of the outcome patents. The results suggest that the firm, and in particular the large multinational company is a good coordination mechanism for fostering such collaborations. As for geographical proximity, it matters when the inventors are localised in a technological cluster.

Comparative Study of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Statistical Methods for Predicting the Performance of Ultrafiltration Process in the Milk Industry
Milk ultrafiltration is a membrane process, which is highly complex innature. The cost effectiveness of the process depends heavily on the flux permeate and the total hydraulic resistance of the membrane. In this work, a comparative study for the prediction of the performance of milk ultrafiltration with ANN and statistical method has been carried out. The result reveals that both methods c...

Today, with the rise of various diseases, the lives of human societies are more and more endangered. Therefore, the pharmaceutical industry is one of the most important industries to be supported in order to maintain the incentive to invent new drugs for dangerous and emerging diseases, as well as the incentive to produce widespread pharmaceuticals for inventors and investment companies in the ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Collaboration Network on Inventors’ Job Match, Productivity and Tenure
It has been argued in the economic literature that job search through informal job networks improves the employer–employee match quality, especially in high wage sectors. This paper argues that inventors’ research collaboration networks reduce the uncertainty of firms about the match qualities of inventors prior to hiring. We estimate the effect of inventors’ collaboration networks on their pro...
متن کاملSpinoffs and the Mobility of U.S. Merchant Semiconductor Inventors
Data on assignees of patenters are used to analyze the mobility of semiconductor inventors. A model of the entry and staffing of spinoffs of incumbent producers is developed to explain the higher mobility of semiconductor inventors in Silicon Valley. Exploiting data on the origins of semiconductor producers with larger sales, we argue that the greater mobility of semiconductor inventors in Sili...
