Abstract :
In this paper, a Web-based platform, BiolPMall, consolidates research results from different universities to create a nationwide resource for biotech development. Its unique sharing mechanism for trading and analyzing intellectual property disseminates viable research results to promote IP commercialization. BioIPMall is based on taxonomy system to efficiently classify and categorize biotechnology, and thus facilitate resource and knowledge sharing. The e-commerce-type platform´s search capabilities help it match the needs and requirements of IP providers and buyers, facilitating the transfer of biotechnologies from academia into industrial applications.
