Perspectives on Innovation and Technology Transfer

Biogas Technology, Applications, Perspectives and Implications

The major purpose of this study was to examine the advantages and implications of biogastechnology in the agriculture sector. Biogas is one of many biomass energy sources, which includeanything that was once alive and that can generate energy (except for fossil fuels, which are notrenewable). To talk of biogas is to talk of agriculture, since biogas generation starts withagricultural waste prod...

Technology Innovation Adoption and Diffusion: A Contrast of Perspectives

An innovation is defined as the act of changing the established order, or introducing something new (Webster’s Dictionary, 1978). Thus there are two sides to the innovation coin, the diffusion of them, and the production of them. One aspect these two sides of the coin share in common is some measure of risk-taking behavior, but the Michael Workman Florida Institute of Technology, USA Technology...

Perspectives on Technology Transfer Strategies of Korean Companies in

Technology transfer (or sharing) is a common way to share external sources. There have been many studies on the relationship of self-R&D and technology transfer regarding its theoretical background and its efficiency. This present research has been developed by examining how a concrete measure of a company or a firm’s real performance (increased sales ratio; growth rate) is related to the varia...

Technology Transfer Innovation and Successful Diffusion in the Construction Industry

Proximity, Knowledge Transfer, and Innovation in Technology-Based M&As

This paper presents the findings from a qualitative study on the extent to which three dimensions of proximity–geographic, cognitive, and organizational– impact knowledge transfer and innovation post-M&A. Findings show that the elements of proximity substantially influence both knowledge transfer and innovation although the nature of the impact varies and is influenced by the type of management...
