A toolbox for accessing federal laboratory innovations and
financing the acquisition of new technologies with corporate
equity, this book is also a guide to understanding the expertise of
specific government laboratories. Entrepreneurs can rapidly
accelerate the growth of their companies and become more
competitive by acquiring federal laboratory innovations. This book
is an indispensable resource for those who want access to the
latest breakthrough technologies, most of which can be traced to
universities and federally funded laboratories. These
taxpayer-funded "idea factories" can and should be leveraged by
companies for competitive advantage. The authors describe how the
private sector can engage these labs as long-term strategic
partners, as well as development partners for the ongoing,
cost-effective improvement of new technologies. Jargon-free and
succinct, this guide also explains how to benefit from knowledge of
the current technology-transfer landscape in order to maximize this
special private-public partnership. No country can equal the United
States in research and development assets. But the federal
government is not always as successful as it could be in using its
authority to encourage such partnerships. It is therefore up to the
private sector--entrepreneurs as well as established companies
seeking new growth outlets-exploit the information presented here.
Included is a directory of federal laboratories with a synopsis of
their expertise and contact information, along with copies of the
breakthrough technology-transfer legislation that has made
technology transfer possible.
