#ocediscovery Kurman says US is a poor model against which to judge Canadian innovation. I agree; I'm rather tired of such comparisons.

by FrancisMoran via twitter 5/14/2012 1:17:38 PM
Maybe Canada is leapfrogging the innovation gap by adapting to new tech transfer ideas @melbakurman #ocediscovery

by MaRSInnovation via twitter 5/14/2012 1:19:03 PM
#ocediscovery In fact, Kurman says, US #techtransfer model, a "university owns" model, is antiquated. Canada has opportunity to leapfrog.

We're set to set that Guinness World Record today! #ocediscovery #businessmentoring bit.ly

@OCEInnovation Retweet overload. No need to retweet every mention of today’s hashtag.

by andrewe via twitter 5/14/2012 1:21:33 PM
#ocediscovery In antiquated model, patents=innovation. Not so, Kurman says. Patent numbers soaring; commercialization rates static.

How to measure university innovation: # of publications, # of yearly disclosures & funding 4 industry-academic collaborations. #ocediscovery

@OCEInnovation "We're set to set that Guinness World Record today! #ocediscovery #businessmentoring bit.ly" Good Luck Guys!

#ocediscovery Kurman's Applied Innovation Index measures more than patents, and corrects for size of university.

by FrancisMoran via twitter 5/14/2012 1:25:10 PM
Today and tomorrow we're at #ocediscovery conference. @OCEInnovation has been such a wonderful support to us and we're proud to give back!

by OCEInnovation via twitter 5/14/2012 1:27:42 PM
#ocediscovery Industry funding far more dominant in Canadian versus US universities. No lack of industry-university links here.

by FrancisMoran via twitter 5/14/2012 1:27:42 PM
In Kurman's model, CDN universities had 12 members in the top 20. Something is working or industry would Walk away. #ocediscovery

by MaRSInnovation via twitter 5/14/2012 1:27:43 PM
Stop comparing Canada to the US. It's actually apples to blueberries says @melbakurman. #ocediscovery But leapfrogging can still occur.

by MaRSInnovation via twitter 5/14/2012 1:30:20 PM
#ocediscovery Canadian schools more than hold their own in every aspect of Kurman's Applied Technology Index. No innovation gap here.

#ocediscovery US Bayh-Dole act is not the problem. "Your employment contract that signs away your IP rights" is the problem.

Discovery 12's mentoring event is all set up and ready to go! #ocediscovery twitpic.com

by Patrick_ORourke via twitter 5/14/2012 1:37:54 PM
interpretation of bayh dole that American universities have taken is the problem. Owning every piece of IP isn't best model. #ocediscovery

by MaRSInnovation via twitter 5/14/2012 1:38:29 PM
super jealous of all the #ocediscovery tweets floating around my timeline! next year for sure!

It's the biotech industry where university patents have most impact & that's largely b/c of length of FDA approvals #ocediscovery

by MaRSInnovation via twitter 5/14/2012 1:44:45 PM

Second speaker at #ocediscovery #techtransfer forum, Alberta's Rick Tofani, also tackles so-called innovation gap in Canada.

by FrancisMoran via twitter 5/14/2012 1:55:57 PM
#ocediscovery Innovation fails in Canada because we do not focus on bringing technology to market: Tofani.
