Transfer entrepreneurship

Meer over het boek

Appropriate organisational structures and forms (systems) of transfer are required for the effective and efficient implementation of knowledge-based technologies. The results gained from the assessment of current technology transfer systems vary greatly: however the findings again and again show that it is an exception rather than a rule for this transfer to function correctly. What is commonly referred to as a „Transfer Center“ („Transfer Enterprise“) can form an appropriate and fully functioning form of organisation in which entrepreneurial activities form a focal point of the so called „transfer entrepreneurship“. A successful transfer entrepreneur is better in using his personal parameters, is more active on the business side and creates his own appropriate organisation. He also achieves a higher degree of economically recognised success in the transfer of technology.
