CAPACITY BUILDING IN TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER KARTON...

This book tells the story of capacity building in Europe with respect to technology transfer
offices and organizations (TTOs). The traditional underdevelopment of technology markets in
Europe has often been explained in terms of lack of capacity and skills among technology
transfer professionals  both as individuals and as part of TTOs. Because of the severe
consequences for economic development and industrial growth  this situation has been repeatedly
addressed by policy makers  until the European Commission  within the framework of Horizon 2020
decided to initiate a pan-European pilot project on capacity building. This book builds on the
experience gained through that project and tries to reconnect it with current scholarly works
on technology management by focusing on the new methodology developed. In addition  the authors
present a series of case studies that may be used as a benchmark and as examples that will help
high-potential TTOs to improve their performance. Both practitioners and researchers will
benefit from the holistic perspective of the book  which goes beyond the traditional approach
and attempts to reconcile the theory and practice of organizing for technology transfer.
