Abstract: In the framework of the Cournot model, a study is conducted on the choice of technology receivers and the optimal technology authorization when the university transfers technology to two enterprises with different technical levels. The research shows that:(1) if the fixed fee mode is adopted, the technology transfer from the university to the high-tech enterprise is more beneficial. In the royalty fee and double charging mode, the choice of the object of technology transfer is diverse:maybe it will transfer to the high R & D investment enterprise, and also to the two companies at the same time. The optimal technical authorization of colleges and universities is mainly determined by the technical stock of enterprises receiving technology, the R & D investment of enterprises and the technology transfer level of universities.

Key words: technology licensing, Cournot competition, social welfare
