Aocheng Tang is working on a conference paper with the title 'Openness and Closeness of Company's IP Strategies: an exploratory study on synthetic biology startups in the UK'

 

Berk Dogan’s research focuses on innovation ecosystems and intellectual property-related activities within the ecosystems. The central aim of his research is to explain different dynamics involved throughout the lifecycle of innovation ecosystems. He is also leading a research project about different business models to commercialise Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences research.

 

Jonas Ehrnspergerresearch focuses on positioning different companies within a patent licensing framework. Their licensing behaviour is measured by the number of licensees and the simplicity to access the firm’s Intellectual property.
