ATTC Network Technology Transfer Model

What is Technology Transfer?

Technology transfer is a multidimensional process that intentionally promotes the use of an innovation.

Technology transfer begins during the development of a new technology, continues through its dissemination, and extends into its early implementation. This process requires multiple stakeholders and resources, and involves activities related to translation and adoption. Technology transfer is designed to accelerate the diffusion of an innovation.
