Technology transfer involves applying technology developed for one purpose to a new use or user. It is important to choose the right technology - one that is not outdated, meets present and future demand, is cost effective and productive, and helps develop local skills. Models of technology transfer include licensing, science parks, hiring skilled employees, and technology transfer units. For inward technology transfer to be successful, organizations must be open to innovation adoption - from innovators and initiators to later adopters. The Intellectual Property Organization of Pakistan aims to integrate IP infrastructure to support achievement as an IP-based nation. Pakistan needs clear long-term policies to enhance technological capabilities through technology transfer and diffusion.
