Innovative activities, knowledge exchange, patenting and commercialization of know-how are crucial to the value creation process in higher education institutions and other research organizations. The article analyses the technology transfer performance indicators of value creation. The methodology to identify and assess the technology transfer activities with the highest impact on created value are proposed in the paper. The following research methods were invoked: FARE method, allowed to calculate weights of each technology transfer performance indicator, when TOPSIS method redress all different indicators’ results and rank universities. The application of the proposed methodology was based on empirical data collected from Lithuanian universities. The results of the study reveal the importance of science business partnerships, TTO competence and scientists’ trust of TTO, applying particular technology transfer policy. The obtained results would be beneficial for universities technology transfer policy formation to maximize universities created value.

Este artigo propõe uma análise de um sistema de produção familiar em processo de transferência de tecnologias sociais desenvolvidas pelo Núcleo de Apoio e Pesquisa e Transferência de Tecnologias Belém/Brasília (NAPT) para o desenvolvimento da agricultura familiar no município de Paragominas. Tem como objetivo demostrar a importância da transferência de tecnologias adaptadas a realidade familiar. Foi realizado levantamento socioeconômico com aplicação de entrevistas e questionários semiestruturados relacionando questões as atividades desenvolvidas na área estudada. Foi realizado também um levantamento bibliográfico sobre os temas abordados, tabulação e interpretação dos dados coletados. Foi possível perceber que a EMBRAPA (Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária), por meio do NAPT desenvolve inovações tecnológicas para a produção de alimentos, buscando um modelo de agricultura e pecuária dentro das especificidades que apresenta cada região do país, busca melhoramento nas espécies vegetais e sua adaptação nos vários climas preponderantes dentro de cada região, fomentando também o desenvolvimento social e econômico das regiões brasileira. Dessa forma no município veem se construindo junto a comunidades familiares um projeto de integração de conhecimento e tecnologias envolvendo os agricultores no intuito de se auto estabelecer na propriedade agrícola. É relevante a presença e os projetos desenvolvidos pelo NAPT no município e região estimulando a pesquisa a partir da realidade local aproveitando o potencial da região, oportunizando espaço de diálogo com a comunidade e demostrando na pratica unidades experimentais que servem de exemplo para os agricultores.

Using theory on technology transfer and on trust and an in-depth study of nine university departments and nineteen science-based small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the authors explore the nature and direction of knowledge flows during university–industry R&D collaboration. More specifically, they examine the nature and direction of R&D technological knowledge transfer in collaborations between universities and science-based SMEs and the primary mechanisms regulating such collaborations. The findings suggest that these collaborations are highly recursive processes of technological knowledge exchange, the innovative outcome of which is greater than the sum of the activities of the respective partners during the period concerned. Surprisingly, given the highly strategic nature of the R&D activities, the collaborations were largely regulated by non-contractual measures (trust). The authors discuss the implications of their findings for R&D managers, policy makers and future studies.

Abstract. Knowledge exchange via social media is crucial for organizational success. Yet, many employees only read others’ contributions without actively contributing their knowledge. We thus examined predictors of the willingness to contribute knowledge. Applying social identity theory and expectancy theory to knowledge exchange, we investigated the interplay of users’ identification with their organization and perceived usefulness of a social media tool. In two studies, identification facilitated users’ willingness to contribute knowledge – provided that the social media tool seemed useful (vs. not-useful). Interestingly, identification also raised the importance of acquiring knowledge collectively, which could in turn compensate for low usefulness of the tool. Hence, considering both social and media factors is crucial to enhance employees’ willingness to share knowledge via social media.
