Full Description
In this insightful book, Albert N. Link offers a perceptive explanation as to why the U.S. public sector is involved in technology transfer, and how the institutions that support technology transfer have become cornerstones of U.S. economic growth and development.
Public-Sector Technology Transfer traces the policy history of public-sector support and illustrates the impact of the Great Recession on technology transfer activity in the U.S. Chapters explore the federal laboratory consortium, technology transfer mechanisms and metrics, publicly- funded small business research programs, and knowledge and technology transfers from publicly funded firms. Link provides an illuminating account of the heuristic and empirical reasons for technology transfer, concluding that many technology transfers occur for the common good of society.
This astute account will be a vital read for academics, researchers and students in economics, entrepreneurship, public policy, public management and business. Its comprehensive exploration of technology transfer in the US will also be of benefit to practitioners and policy makers in government institutions, as well as small business entrepreneurs.
