"A valuable and insightful study for understanding how a changing university system might still be a major driver of economic growth in the age of globalization" Enrico Santarelli, Professor of Economics, University of Bologna."This book will help us better understand why and how universities around the globe vary in the degree they are able to bring inventions generated in university research labs to the marketplace. It will provide helpful guidance for universities embarking on technology transfer for the first time or are reconsidering how they can improve."Harvey A. Goldstein, Vice President, MODUL University – Vienna, Professor and Head of Department of Public Governance and Sustainable Development
