Open publisher page 16 citations

Abstract

The problem of technology transfer, from government–sponsored and university–performed basic research into industrial use and commercialization, is examined in areas other than agriculture, defence and health. Technology transfer requires a pro–active attitude that takes into account and deals with the differing innovation perspectives of academe and industry. Several criteria for successful technology transfer are discussed and illustrated by means of examples.
