In Chile, the foundations’ technology transfer policy framework is linked to intellectual property rights for inventions, mostly influenced by the U.S. Bayh-Dole Act (Gotkin 2012). Historically, the first trademark regulation, namely the Royal Regulations and Tariffs for Free Trade from Spain to the Indies of October 12, 1778. Then, industrial property regulation was established in 1833 to guarantee their authors’ exclusive property and inventors’ discoveries and production. A few years later, the registration of trademarks was in charge of the National Society of Agriculture funded by the Ministry of Finance in 1838. Then, the Decree-Law on Patents for the invention came into force, and the first patent law was approved in 1840. Andrés Blest granted the first patent for the “method for making rum in Chile” in Valparaso.
Funding Information:
We adopted the retrospective case study approach (Leonard-Barton 1990) through multiple secondary sources of information related to Chile’s technology transfer policy framework. Concretely, we revised official reports from the Ministry of Economy, Development, and Tourism; the National Institute of Intellectual Property; the National Agency for Research and Development; the Ministry of Science, Technology, Knowledge and Innovation; the National Council of Innovation for Development; the Development Corporation; the Agriculture Ministry; the Ministry of Health; the National Arts Council; and the Ministry of Education. We analyzed the information by adopting the triangulation process suggested by Yin (2017).

N2 - Technological environments provide multiple conditions for the development of technology-based business and intellectual properties. Over the last decades, the Chilean government has designed/implemented a technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship policy framework. This chapter analyzes the technology transfer policy framework’s evolutionary process and its effectiveness. This chapter adopts a retrospective longitudinal analysis. Our findings provide some insights into the outcomes and challenges regarding technology transfer practices in Chile.
