Product Description The nation's ability to facilitate the transfer of its valuable, publicly funded technology and related know-how from its national research laboratories and universities to the private sector for commercial usage will be key to its future economic growth and global business competitiveness. This work is a comprehensive guide to all of the essential legal and business considerations that entrepreneurs and managers must take into account in the course of structuring technology transfers. The book is intended to provide readers with a clear and concise summary of the basic building blocks of effective technology transfer, including applicable federal laws and regulations, intellectual property law, licensing agreements, research and development arrangements, and the strategies that may be adopted for improving technology transfer in the future. This book takes the reader through each transaction on a step-by-step basis, beginning with partner selection and preliminary activities, and includes comprehensive model contract provisions. In addition, the book analyzes how the federal laboratories, the government, and firms in the private sector can improve the quantity and quality of technology transfer in the years to come. | ||
