Updated

New Requirements

  • re-run the match using *both* name-related fields in the startups_cl.dta file: “name” and “name_prev”.
  1. the latter field pulls in patents applied for under a former name of the same company
  • in the output file, please include…
  1. include the field “entityid” that corresponds to each startup (this step is critical; else, we can’t link patents filed under alternative names of the company to the same firm); in startups_cl.dta
  2. all assignee-related fields in your patent data (e.g., assignee name, and any original and current uspto assignee codes listed for the patent); merge in from your patent files

Output

Text files are in:E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\

  1. summarytablefinal: summary on number of patents and grant year for all companies
  2. ullyjoinedtable: all patent and assignee information for entities that have patents (combining 3 and 4)
  3. fullyjoinednow: patent information under current name of the company
  4. fullyjoinedprev: patent information under previous name of the company

notes

 In summarytablefinal table: (for all entities)
 Variables:
 Entity Name|Standard Orgname|Number of patent|
 Previous Name|Previous Standard Orgname|Previous Number of Patent|
 Total number of Patent|
 Orinigal ID | Revised ID|
 min grant year|max grant year|avg grant year|
 ***One company have the exactly same name for entity name and previous name(Z-KAT) and there is double counting of patent. So the total number of patent
 should be 11 instead of 22.
 In fullyjoinedtable: (for entities that have patent)
 Including all patent and assignee variables
 33 variables in total
 variables start with 'asg' are assignee information, e.g. asgtype =  assignee type
 The rest are patent information.

Overview

In this matching process, we will join patent data to VentureOne companies and count the number of patents that affiliated to each company.

Raw Data

Original data set of VentureOne companies can be found at: E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\Venture Data 1.xlsx

  • All Variables: EntityName,Employees, City, State, Zip, AreaCode, Business Status, IndustryGroup...etc
  • Variables used for matching: EntityName

Original patent data is in our database: 128.42.44.181/bulk/allpatent

Procedure

We first get the standard company names for VentureOne companies from the source VentureOne data set. Then we standardize the names of the companies that have patents from our patent database. Based on the common standard company names, we join patent information to VentureOne companies.

Final Matched Tables

  1. Summary table displaying number of patents owned, minimum grant year, maximum grant year and average grant year for each company (including the ones that own no patents). It can be found at:E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\venturesummary.txt
  2. A table contains all patent information for the companies that have patents and can be found at E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\venturefullyjoined.txt

Desired Variables

Below is the list of variables that were in the STATA file we were given:

Detailed Data Processing

  • Get the VentureOne data ready
  1. Source file for VentureOne data E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\Venture Data 1.xlsx Original data source
  2. Clean it up E:\McNair\Software\Scripts\Matcher\Input\Venture Data 1.txt extraneous symbols and words removed
  3. Match it against itself to get standardized entity names E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\Cleaned and Matched Data.xlsx
  • Get the patent data ready
  1. Draw the distinct assignees Z:\allpatentsprocessed\DistinctAssignees2.txt
  2. Match them against themselves to get standardized org names for patent data Z:\allpatentsprocessed\DistinctAssignees2matched.txt
  • Match standardized org names of patent data to standardized entity names of venture data
Z:\allpatentsprocessed\Venture Patent Matched.txt
  • Join patent data to venture data to get patent information of each venture-backed company
  1. Join patent data to assignee data, creating firstjoin_cleaned which matches assignees to patent numbers.
  2. Join firstjoin_cleaned data to matchassignee data, creating secondjoin_cleaned which matches standard org names to patent numbers
  3. Join secondjoin_cleaned data to venturepatentmatched data, creating fourthjoin_cleaned which matches standard venture company names to patent numbers
  • Final summary tables
  1. Summary table displaying number of patents owned, minimum grant year, maximum grant year and average grant year for each company E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\venturepatentreallyfinal.txt
  2. A table of all patent information for each company that has patents E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\venturepatentfullyjoined.txt
  • Notes
  1. All data in allpatentsprocessed database. Access it by logging on to researcher@McNair DBServ:/bulk/allpatentsprocessed
  2. A script of detailed processing procedure can be found at E:\McNair\Projects\Venture One Data\patent data script.txt

The matched data

We are giving back two files:

  • One is at the patent level and contains information on 38,497 patents held by the 1,557 of the 3,357 companies.
  • The other file is at the company level and aggregate patent information for the 3,357 companies.
