This paper focuses on the question of whether the national production functions
of patents owned by universities and public research organisations (PROs) differ. We use
Eurostat patent and R&D data broken down by institutional sector for the European Union 27
and other countries in years 1982–2007, and we estimate dynamic panel models. The impact
of R&D expenditure on patent ownership is higher for PROs than for universities. University
patent ownership activity is dependent on business funding, while PRO patent ownership is
not. We recommend a reversal of the current decline of PRO R&D expenditure and discuss
whether PROs perform better at macroeconomic level vis a vis universities.
