Abstract
A computer-based network to support technology transfer between campuses of the California State University and local industry is described. Options associated with designing the database and configuring the hardware are evaluated. The TECHNET system involves 20 campuses of the state university system and is designed to support 1,000 industrial firms. The database consists of faculty expertise in the forms of resumes and company products and capabilities. Member companies may query the database to identify faculty (preferably at a local campus) and/or another company that can help them solve technological and business problems. The benefit of TECHNET to companies in addition to problem solving is new business opportunities and to faculty is consulting opportunities. The work is supported by the California Competitive Technology Project office of the California Department of Commerce.
