This book was released on 2023-03-16 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2022 in the subject Communications - Technical Communication, , language: English, abstract: The goal of this action research was to see how technology transfer from Misrak Polytechnic College affected small-scale businesses. Based on this, the researcher concentrated on transferred technology in the academic years 2012 and 2013 E.C. and employed a survey methodology to achieve the study's goal. A total of 57 trainers and 8 technology team members were chosen for this research to transfer and facilitate technology. From them 81.5% were male and 18.5% female. In addition, 57 firms were chosen to acquire technology from trainers. Data was collected through questionnaires and observation. To emphasize the link and variance of the variables, the data collected through the questionnaire was analyzed using frequency %, mean and standard deviation. To complement the quantitative statistics, the information gathered through open ended questionnaires was evaluated qualitatively. The findings suggest that trainers' problem-solving methods on technology transfer are based on their knowledge of how to deal with technology. Although the trainers have a basic understanding of technology, the results show that additional understanding is required. Aside from that, the findings examine knowledge and skills in value chain analysis. The mean value was 3.38 and the standard deviation was computed as 1.07, which is larger than one, implying that the data was spread out over a wide range of values, implying that respondents had a variety of alternatives when it came to this particular variable. There are no widespread surveys on the college's suitability for technology development and transfer. In the previous two years, 85.2 percent of trainers produced and transmitted technology for small businesses, but no single technology has been duplicated or made available to the general public by SMEs. The transferred technology is not being imitated by SMEs, but the results demonstrate that the enterprises are interested in technology transfer. The majority of the trainers believe that the transferred technology has a functional difficulty, lacks a nice physical look, and does not match the planned goal.

Book excerpt: The book is the culmination of a research effort which spanned all continents and involved a large number of research teams from both the industrialised and developing countries. The book addresses a number of key issues related to technology transfer by small and medium-sized enterprises most especially whether such companies are more effective transferors than larger transnational corporations. A key aspect of the research was the fact that firms in source and host countries were matched to assure a degree of consistency in the firm coverage and their responses.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program was established in 1982 by the Small Business Innovation Development Act to increase the participation of small innovative companies in federally funded R&D. In establishing the program, Congress found that technological innovation plays an important role in job creation, productivity improvements, and U.S. competitiveness; that small businesses are among the most cost-effective performers of R&D and particularly capable of bringing R&D results to market in the form of new products; and that despite the role of small businesses as ?the principal source of significant innovations in the Nation, the vast majority of federally funded R&D is performed by large businesses, universities, and federal laboratories. This book provides background and examines issues in the SBIR and small business technology transfer programs.

This book was released on 2016-01-11 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's knowledge economy is driven in large part by the nation's capacity to innovate. One of the defining features of the U.S. economy is a high level of entrepreneurial activity. Entrepreneurs in the United States see opportunities and are willing and able to assume risk to bring new welfare-enhancing, wealth-generating technologies to the market. Yet, although discoveries in areas such as genomics, bioinformatics, and nanotechnology present new opportunities, converting these discoveries into innovations for the market involves substantial challenges. The American capacity for innovation can be strengthened by addressing the challenges faced by entrepreneurs. Public-private partnerships are one means to help entrepreneurs bring new ideas to market. The Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) and the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program form one of the largest examples of U.S. public-private partnerships. In the SBIR Reauthorization Act of 2000, Congress tasked the National Research Council with undertaking a comprehensive study of how the SBIR program has stimulated technological innovation and used small businesses to meet federal research and development needs and with recommending further improvements to the program. When reauthorizing the SBIR and STTR programs in 2011, Congress expanded the study mandate to include a review of the STTR program. This report builds on the methodology and outcomes from the previous review of SBIR and assesses the STTR program.
