The role of higher education in knowledge production, especially with regard to technology transfer and diffusion, has become an important driver of productivity and economic growth.Technology transfer and diffusion is about transferring good ideas, research results,innovation and skills among universities, other research organisations, business and the wider community to enable the development of innovative products and services. In some circles, technology transfer and diffusion is increasingly being referred to as universities’ fourth academic mission – in addition to teaching, research and community engagement. |
