THE TTO, A UNIVERSITY ENGINE TRANSFORMING SCIENCE INTO INNOVATION

Descripción

Industry-science links have become a key dimension in both innovation management and innovation policy. In this paper, it is argued that the growth and the development of academic Technology Transfer Organizations (TTO’s) which support those links deserve careful attention, thus articulating the critical success factors that enable the deployment of effective TTO operations. In doing so, LERU wants to contribute to a better understanding of the fundamental role of the TTO in the process of translating the results of academic research into a form which can be more readily adopted by industry and commerce. In this advice paper, a set of insights are presented that can underpin universities’ TTO deployment.
