BAYH-DOLE ACT Historical Perspective• Science — The endless frontier (1945) • 1950s-1970s — Expansion of government R&D

– growth in R&D procurement from universities– competition for government research grants

• By late 1970s, recognition of unrealized potential from Government inventions– 28,000 government patents but only 5% licensed

• No uniformity in government intellectual property policies in R&D procurement
