Abstract
University research center is one of the most attractive external sources of technology for the industry. In an industrialized country, there exists a strong linkage between university and industry to facilitate the exchange of technology. This paper attempts to identify the different modes of technology transfer at university research centers. The authors reviewed and compared technology transfer activities of three university research centers in Singapore. Comparing three research centers according to their activities and performances in technology transfer, it can be seen that higher the commitment in motivating industry to participate in technology transfer projects, the more successful the technology transfer practices become. Among different technology transfer mechanisms, joint R&D project is an efficient way to ensure high commitment of industry and increase the transferability and willingness to industry. The role of the government is also critical for successful relationship between research centers and industry, to assist the research centers and provide the funding and other resources.
