Tech- Transfer Support
The transfer of pharmaceuticals R&D is more than a question of “bricks and mortar” or providing a “tool kit”. It involves many channels, all of which improve the capabilities of the recipient organization. What is transferred may be a physical object or pure knowledge. We can identify the following elements:
Techno-ware:
transfer of physical objects such as equipment for use in research laboratories or production equipment for the manufacture of pharmaceuticals ingredients, or the formulation or packaging of final products.
Human-ware:
skills and human aspects of technology management and learning, such as training for researchers or general practitioners Technology transfer can also create positive spillover effects into associated industries and into the supporting public sector research infrastructure.
Info-ware:
All techniques related to knowledge, information, and technology, in the form of a technology license, Procedures, dossiers.
Orga-ware:
Organizational and procedural knowledge needed to operate a given technology relating to a chemical or biological compound.
