Technology Transfer, Innovation and Entrepreneurship

Technology transfer is the essential link between innovation and its application in the market. Through this process, the results of scientific research, technological development and specialised knowledge — such as patents, software, algorithms, databases and know-how — are transformed into assets with commercial value and growth potential. Its management requires a strategic vision that combines intellectual property protection with legal mechanisms that enable the proper exploitation of technology.
