    Book description

    Scientists in the laboratory often fail to take advantage of the commercial exploitation of their research. This is frequently because they simply do not know what to do. Technology Transfer is a careful account of how to start the process of commercialisation of technology, and describes in detail the difficulties, and amount of time needed, to carry the process through to a successful conclusion. This book provides a much needed step by step guide to the commercialisation of research. It addresses three major themes: how to protect your intellectual property, how to develop it commercially via licensing and business 'start up', and how to finance and manage your new company. This book is essential reading for any research scientist whose work has commercial applications.

    Reviews

    ‘Overall, this is an excellent book and will be very helpful to all scientists wishing to see the results of their research developed commercially.’

    Alan Munro Source: Trends in Cell Biology

    ‘… this book arrives at just the right time … when technology transfer is becoming more and more important, any book that tries to pull together a practical overview of the field should be welcomed.’

    Robert I. James Source: Nature

    ‘… this book is virtually unique … a book to buy, to savour, and to refer to again and again.’

    John Mann Source: The Chemical Engineer

    ‘This is a book to purchase, not one to borrow just once from a library - and, particularly in the paperback version, incredibly good value for money.’

    John Mann Source: Diagnostic Club Newsletter, ‘Exchange’

    ‘… a marvelous book … should be mandatory reading for any entrepreneur.’

    Keith Redenbaugh Source: Journal of Food Biochemistry
