Technology transfer is one of the most important mechanisms for acquiring knowledge from external sources to secure innovative and advanced technologies in high-tech industries. For successful technology transfer, identification of high-value technologies is a fundamental task. In particular, identifying future promising patents is important, because most technology transfer transactions are aimed at acquiring technologies for future uses. This paper proposes a new approach to identification of promising patents for technology transfer. We adopted TRIZ evolution trends as criteria to evaluate technologies in patents, and Subject–Action–Object (SAO)-based text-mining technique to deal with big patent data and analyze them automatically. The applicability of the proposed method was verified by applying it to technologies related to floating wind turbines.
► We propose a new method to identify promising patents for technology transfer.
► We adopt TRIZ trends as criteria to evaluate technologies in patents.
► TRIZ trends can be classified by considering characteristics of lifecycle stage.
► We adopt SAO-based text mining to analyze big patent data automatically.
► We verified the method by applying it to floating wind turbine technology.
