A Breath of Fresh Air? Firm Type, Scale, Scope, and Selection Effects in Drug Development
No full textThis paper compares the innovation performance of established pharmaceutical firms and biotech companies, controlling for differences in the scale and scope of research. We develop a structural model to analyze more than 3,000 drug research and development projects advanced to preclinical and clinical trials in the United States between 1980 and 1994. Key to our approach is careful attention to the issue of selection. Firms choose which compounds to advance into clinical trials. This choice depends not only on the technical promise of the compound, but also on commercial considerations such as the expected profitability of the market or concerns about product cannibalization. After controlling for selection, we find that (a) even after controlling for scale and scope in research, established pharmaceutical firms are more innovative than newly entered biotech firms; (b) older biotech firms display selection behaviors and innovation performances similar to established pharmaceutical firms; and (c) compounds licensed during preclinical trials are as likely to succeed as internal compounds of the licensor, which is inconsistent with the "lemons" hypothesis in technology markets.firm capabilities, drug development process, market for technology
Ideas for rent: an overview of markets for technology
No full textThis article surveys some of the recent literature on technology markets, and summarizes its main issues and insights. We structure our analysis in three parts: the supply and demand of technology; the factors that condition the formation and growth of technology markets; industry structure and dynamic issues. In addition, we summarize some of the studies that have tried to document the size and growth of these markets. We find that the literature has focused mainly on the supply of technology, but several other aspects of these markets remain under-studied, including the demand for external technology, the role of uncertainty in technology markets, and the dynamic interaction between industry structure and the market for technology. Understanding these will illuminate whether markets for technology will continue to grow or remained confined to pockets of the economy. Copyright 2010 The Author 2010.

Hippasa haryanensis Arora & Monga 1994
No full textHippasa haryanensis Arora & Monga, 1994, nomen nudum Hippasa haryanensis Arora & Monga, 1994: 74, figs 5–8 (♂ ♀). Type material. Holotype ♀ from INDIA: Haryana: Hisar: Pigeon pea fields at Research Farm of Chaudhary Charan Singh (CCS) Haryana Agricultural University, 28 August 1989, P. Arora leg., repository unknown (no register number specified), not examined. Paratypes 10 ♂♂, 30 ♀♀, with the same data as holotype except 15 July 1989, 28 August 1989 and 20 September 1989, not examined. Allotype 1 ♂, with the same data as holotype, not examined. Remarks. We were unable to examine the types of this species as no information is available about its repository (Arora & Monga 1994), and thus should be considered nomen nudum in the terms of art. 16.4 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999). The original description and genitalic illustrations of this smallsized species (body length: male 5.52, female 6.45) are poor and insufficiently informative to recognize it (Arora & Monga 1994: figs 5, 8). The original description of the female mentions that the sternum lacks the mid-longitudinal band (Arora & Monga 1994), indicating it may not be a member of Hippasa. Moreover, the median epigynal septum illustrated for this species (Arora & Monga 1994: fig. 8) indicates that it may be a member of either Ovia Sankaran, Malamel & Sebastian, 2017 or Trochosa C.L. Koch, 1847. The novelty and taxonomic placement of this species remain unchallenged until examination of its types or topotype specimens.Published as part of SANKARAN, PRADEEP M. & CALEB, JOHN T.

Wholly owned subsidiary versus technology licensing in the worldwide chemical industry
No full textThis paper empirically analyzes the determinants of the choice between wholly owned subsidiary and technology licensing as a strategy for expansion abroad. We use a new and comprehensive database on worldwide plant level investments in the chemical industry during the 1981–1991 period. We find that both cultural distance and the presence of other potential licensors favor the use of licensing as a strategy for expanding abroad, whereas, prior experience favors the choice of wholly owned subsidiary. An implication of this study is that competition in the market for technology can foster the international diffusion of technology through the use of arm's length agreements. © 2000, Academy of International Business.
