technology transfer, university, participant observation, developmentAbstract
The theme of this research is related to the role of the university in the transfer of technology to society as a sustainable development strategy. Hence, the aim of this article is to present the good practices used at the University of Michigan Office of Technology Transfer, in USA, through field study based on participant observation, interviews and documents, in order to provide benchmarking to support policies and strategies to overcome barriers to technology transfer in different territorial contexts. The results point to experiences related to the importance of the institutional environment in which the office is inserted, the existence of suitable infrastructure, gap funding and qualified human resources at the university, the management of intellectual property and the importance of a relationship culture between universities and other socioeconomic sectors.
