Summary

Introduction

The importance of universities and their research, development as well as commercialization (R, D & C) activities has been widely recognized (Candell and Jaffe, 1999; Ndonzuau et al, 2002). Commercializing university research outputs or intellectual property is an imperative facet in the National Economic Model (NEM) of the 10th Malaysian Plan (2011-2015) whereby innovation-based economy is the vehicle identified to drive Malaysia into becoming a high-income nation (Economic Planning Unit, 2010). A vital aspect of this innovation-based economy is Intellectual Property (IP) and the ancillary issues that arise from it, such as the creation, protection, management and commercialization aspects. These factors play an important role in the National Intellectual Property Policy’s ultimate aim which is to develop a vibrant IP industry as a driver for innovation and creativity that is essential in sustaining Malaysian’s economic growth.
