INTRODUCTION
• Technology of transfer may be defined as a mutually agreed upon, intentional, goal-oriented, and proactive process by which technology flows from an entity that owns the technology (the transferor) to an entity seeking the technology (the transferee).
• The transfer involves cost and expenditure that is negotiated and agreed upon by the transferee and transferor.
• The transfer may be said to be successful if the transferee can successfully utilise the technology for business gains and eventually assimilate it.
• Technology transfer can be vertical or horizontal technology transfer.
• Vertical transfer refers to transfer of technology from basic research to applied research, development, and production respectively.
• Horizontal technology transfer refers to the movement and use of technology used in one place, organisation, or context to another place, organisation, or context.
• It is also important to view technology transfer from the perspective of the “technology development
chains” of a transferor and transferee.
1.APCTT
• Asian and Pacific Centre for Transfer of Technology
• It is a United Nations Regional Institution under the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP).
• established in 1977 in Bangalore, India.

2.NRDC
• Typically the NRDC would patent the product for commercial exploitation and earn royalties as private sector companies generated sales from those products.
• Examples of such products include carbon fibre, asbestos-plastic composites and developments in semi-conductor technology.
• The development of the hovercraft would also not have taken place without the involvement of the NRDC.

• Under the leadership of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, Technology Vision 2020 exercise led to set of 17 documents, including sixteen technology areas and one on services.
• In more than 25 years of its service to the nation, it has delivered number of technology assessment and foresight reports.
3. TIFAC
• While inaugurating the 103rd Indian Science Congress in Mysuru, Hon’ble Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modi released the Technology Vision 2035 prepared by TIFAC.
• This is being followed by release of Technology Roadmaps in 12 thematic areas of national priorities and importance
• Education, Medical Science & Health Care, Food and Agriculture, Water, Energy, Environment, Habitat, Transportation, Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Materials and Information & Communication Technologies (ICT).
