Abstract: | Over the last 20 years, universities have made steady progress in their efforts to foster the process of technology transfer
through collaboration with industry. The establishment of technology transfer offices (TTO) has become routine for supporting
the commercialization of academic research. However, the literature shows that there are many factors that affect the efficiency
and effectiveness of these offices. Based on original data from interviews with 197 university departments in Italy, this
paper investigates the determinants of universities university use of TTOs. We take account of the effects of universities’
and TTOs characteristics, of research and geographic indicators. |
