  As Tony Strauss of the University of Minnesota noted: "The university needs to strengthen its links with business clusters around the state - engage with them on an ongoing basis about technology that is being developed which may be relevant to them."

  Tony Strauss , acting vice president of the Patents and Technology Marketing office at the University of Minnesota , said the potential change in patent law might severely hamstring United States patent seekers , including the university.
  
  In the past , the U of M has requested European searches for its PCT applications because , in combination with a domestic patent application in the United States , it gave a better glimpse of other inventions across the world.The European searches were working , he said.
  
  We wanted to get another bite of the apple ; it gave us a better idea of what we were going to run into , Strauss said.
  
  ...
  As the backlog of patent requests has increased in Europe , the level of service seems to have suffered , said Strauss of the university.
  
  Our [ lawyers ] are now recommending against doing the European searches , Strauss said.Not because we think the quality of work has gone down , but because of the backlog.The searches aren't getting done in a timely way..

  Anthony L. Strauss, acting assistant vice president of the university's office of Patents and Technology Marketing, says he worries that any deal that is good enough to interest investors might be bad for the university.
  
  "Someone has to be underselling for the companies to be making money," Mr. Strauss says."If it turns out that the royalty stream blows up, you did a good deed and you'll feel good about it."But if it turns out to have been a bad deal, then "that would likely be a major story."
  
  A deal can also have political ramifications.
  
  That is especially true for a public university, says Mr. Strauss, where legislators might consider a big payoff on royalties to be an excuse to cut the institution's appropriation."I wouldn't say it's a deciding factor, but it's part of the cost-benefit analysis," he acknowledges.

  Political factors weighed heavily for officials at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
  
  The university was close to signing a monetizing deal in 1997 for about $100-million in lieu of the royalty stream it receives on an invention used to make the anti-clotting drug ReoPro.At the time, the institution was receiving more than $7-million a year. (At Stony Brook, 40 percent goes to the inventors.)
  
  But the institution didn't have an immediate need for so big a windfall, and feared a backlash from the state.

  Tony Strauss, acting assistant vice president for patents, technology and marketing for the University, said the survey is a tribute to the entrepreneurial nature of the faculty and President Mark Yudof's commitment to technology transfer.
  
  The university's success in spinning off companies has generated royalties that pay for extra staff to help convert technologies to new enterprises, he said.
