on how to enhance the effectiveness of technology transfer
in the commercialization of science
to assess technology transfer and performance at multiple levels (individual, organizational, regional, and societal) and at multiple types of institutions (firms, universities, federal/national labs and public research institutes)
in technology transfer at multiple levels of analysis and for multiple types of institutions
in grants, donations (including the possibility of naming the center), and contract research over a five-year period
Graduate, executive education, and certificate programs in the relatively untapped space of technology transfer
