I'm exploring strategies to optimize the impact and monetization of research by balancing publications with other intellectual property options, such as patents or trademarks. Given that high-quality manuscripts often face publication bias and may not reach top-tier journals, I am particularly interested in approaches that prioritize the inherent value of the research itself over its journal placement. Insights on effective strategies and experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, Abel. It's very simple. The first step is a patent (at least, a patent application) for licensing and other commercialisation in the future. The second step is publication. There are some subtleties in patents and publications, of course. Your local patent specialists can help you with this.
Best regards,
Marina.
To balance publications and intellectual property (IP), researchers should publish open, high-quality research while protecting commercializable innovations through patents. Collaborating with industry can help bridge academic and commercial gaps. Licensing IP offers monetization opportunities without limiting academic freedom. Strategic patenting focuses on breakthrough discoveries with strong commercial potential. Prioritize impactful, quality research to maximize both academic and financial returns.
