Technology license agreements as public–private partnerships for economic development: evaluations using surveys, input–output modeling, and regression analysis. Raile, Eric D.; Austin, Eric K.; Wallner, Michael P.; Peterson, Jeffrey; Lewandowski, Brian; Kapps, Derek; Sellegren, Bridger; Hutton, Joe. Technology license agreements as public–private partnerships for economic development: evaluations using surveys, input–output modeling, and regression analysis. Journal of Innovation & Entrepreneurship. 2/3/2025, Vol. 14 Issue 1, p1-23. We evaluate license agreements as a form of technology transfer that constitutes a public–private partnership (PPP) with the primary goal of economic development. These license agreements permit entrepreneurs and other businesses to turn government innovations into earnings. We constructed a complete database of all license agreements between the U.S. Department of Defense and private industry from 2000 to 2021. We first surveyed the companies involved, achieving a 96% response rate. The subsequently anonymized responses allowed us to generate sales numbers and to model a variety of other national economic impacts. We tallied approximately $32 billion in direct sales across 590 license agreements. While the majority of license agreements with sales belong to smaller companies (which often attract additional investment), some large companies generate higher revenues. Further statistical modeling with the heavily anonymized data identifies features of license agreement situations that influence economic outcomes. Technology license agreements are a form of PPP that performs well against its goal of economic development without the downsides of some PPPs. Importantly, entrepreneurs can use this form of PPP to attract investment and to generate jobs and other societal benefits.

Panelists cited uncertainty, tariffs, and other federal policies for the primary reasons for their outlook. All six components of the index increased from Q2 to Q3, but the components all remained well-below levels measured a year ago.

Business confidence took the second-steepest dive ahead of Q2 2025, resting at the third-lowest level in the 23-year history of the Leeds Business Confidence Index (LBCI). The reason for the pessimism can largely be summarized due to the uncertainty surrounding new federal policies. Reversing gains measured in Q1 2025, all components of the LBCI posted year-over-year and over-the-quarter declines ahead of Q2 2025.
