Description
Summary:The paper proposes a presentation of the main online technology transfer platforms at international and national level in terms of type of ownership, highlighting the functioning criteria, the cost and the advantages or disadvantages specific to the public or private initiatives. The analysis has highlighted the success of public initiatives in the field and a low survival rate for private platforms. Public-Private Partnerships can be a solution to optimize the work of specialized technology transfer platforms. Romania does not currently have a specialized technology transfer network, functional at national level. There are some governmental initiatives or based on European funds, but the information presented is brief, the number of participants is low and the offer of technology transfer partnerships is limited. The study highlighted the need to develop tools tailored to technology transfer, including technology platforms, but government support and measures to support public and private research are needed to increase the success rate.
