YEVERINO JUAREZ, Jorge Antonio e MONTORO SANCHEZ, María Ángeles. Efficiency and productivity in transfer units of scientific research results in Mexico. Contad. Adm [online]. 2019, vol.64, n.3, e105. Epub 16-Jun-2020. ISSN 0186-1042. https://doi.org/10.22201/fca.24488410e.2019.1421.
The objective of this paper is to evaluate and determine the levels of efficiency and productivity among the academic units involved in the technological transference of scientific research between 2012 and 2013. The empirical research is based on the survey applied to 21 research centers -RCs- and higher education institutions -HEIs- in Mexico. Two complementary models were designed, a data envelopment analysis model (DEA method) and a stochastic boundary model (SFE method). The results obtained by parametric and non-parametric methods show a strong heterogeneity between the RCs and the HEIs that have participated since 2011 in processes linked to technology transfer in Mexico. In contrast to other more developed countries, productivity is limited in factors such as number of licenses and revenues through licensing, number of notifications for inventions and experience in years within technology trans-fer offices. Ultimately, to measure the continuity of our results, a balanced data dynamic panel model was estimated for the period 2014 to 2016; this model shows that the public expenditure and the number of academy-industry agreements positively influence on the productivity levels within the high educational institutions.
