Selected Case Studies

Abstract

This chapter provides some of the case studies which were included in the “Best practice library” of the Progress-TT project. This library was aimed at enabling wider dissemination of best practices in the field of technology transfer, through their use in the training events of the Progress-TT project and online public availability of the case-studies in the project website. The case studies included in this library are categorised in four “Critical Areas of Focus” (CAFs) identified as highly relevant to the mission of Progress-TT: “Scouting ideas/technologies from the PRO and incentivising researchers to disclose IP”; “Assessing IP potential, validating technologies and incentivising for commercialisation”; “Accessing finance and interacting with financial stakeholders”; “Securing TTO Staff skills and organising the TTO for optimum growth”.
