Key features of the technology transfer process

- A service portfolio strengthened by different competencies that have to be simultaneouslyselectively activated in the technology transfer process (the finding out and the outsourcing of specific know-how too)

- A strict link with research centers (high quality)

- A technological ldquosensitivityrdquo to approach the market the abilitycapability either to characterize or to ldquoevokerdquo enterprisesrsquo innovation needs as well as to interact with the research world

Starting from the evidence that

1) The role of different innovationrsquos actors is not definitely defined (it depends on the specific technology transfer process)

2) The consulting activity should ldquostay tunedrdquo to most of the different enterprisersquos areas during the whole time developing of the process

Objectives all market opportunity (1) as well as a competitive advantage (2) gaining
