On this episode of Technology Transfer IP, Lisa has the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Clovia Hamilton, a tenure track Assistant Professor in the Technology and Society Department of SUNY Korea (which is affiliated with Stonybrook University) in Songdo South Korea (about an hour outside of Seoul). Dr. Hamilton teaches ethics, smart education, smart cities (i.e., technology in the city, including the impact of artificial intelligence on society), and industrial engineering operations management.Dr. Hamilton's research focuses on business law & ethics, technology management, academic entrepreneurship, faculty, student startups, college industry partnerships, university, and federal lab technology transfer operations as novel supply chains, intellectual property, and scientific misconduct.Listen as Dr. Hamilton shares her findings from testing four hypotheses about Knowledge Management, Knowledge Deployment, Knowledge Infrastructure, and External investments and how each positively relates to TTO performance in the areas of patenting, licensing, and generating startups. Dr. Hamilton reveals the overall conclusions she was able to derive from the research.Dr. Hamilton discusses the scheduling tool she developed and how this tool benefits University TTOs, and which Universities are using the tool. She also talks about HBCUs, their history, how they got their start, how their Tech Transfer offices differ from non-HBCUs and how an emerging HBCU is different from an emerging research institution.Dr. Hamilton speaks about how important the survival of HBCUs is to their local and regional economics and how her toolkit could help other minority-serving institutions, Hispanic, Native American, Asian American, and Native American Pacific Islander serving institutions. As we wrap up, listen as Dr. Hamilton shares where her current research is focused and what she hopes to discover in the future.In This Episode:[02:21] Welcome to the show, Dr. Hamilton![03:48] Dr. Hamilton discusses the four hypotheses she tested, and she gives some details.[05:14] Dr. Hamilton shares that for hypothesis two, they found support, but they didn't find support for hypothesis three.
