How do you ensure the quality and relevance of the technologies showcased on technology transfer platforms?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Technology transfer platforms are online tools that enable the exchange of scientific and technological knowledge, innovations, and solutions among different actors, such as researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers, and end-users. They can facilitate the identification, evaluation, protection, licensing, and commercialization of technologies, as well as the creation of partnerships and networks. However, not all technologies showcased on these platforms are equally relevant, reliable, or impactful for the intended audiences and contexts. How do you ensure the quality and relevance of the technologies showcased on technology transfer platforms? Here are some tips and best practices to consider.

1 Define your goals and criteria

Before showcasing any technology on a platform, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve and how you will measure it. What is the purpose of the platform? Who are the target users and beneficiaries? What are their needs and preferences? What are the expected outcomes and impacts of the technology transfer? Based on these questions, you can define the criteria and indicators that will guide the selection, evaluation, and presentation of the technologies. For example, you may consider the novelty, feasibility, scalability, usability, sustainability, social and environmental value, and market potential of the technologies.

One thing what I have found helpful for Technology Transfer is the established and approved operating procedures as guidance and protocol for execution. Technology Transfer protocol should contain clear objective, scope, responsibility of involved stake holders, pre-requisites, methodologies, acceptance criteria and plan to handle discrepancies.

There are many ideas that utilize resources in the public domain that, when combined, could be the foundation of a new startup. Pulling data from NASA's GeneLab to answer questions about microgravity, immunity, and bone density loss is not just an academic exercise, it's a way to add to our ability to put researchers in space for longer periods. The idea of open-sourcing technology can only boost interest in creating businesses that use those core concepts. Making this process democratized rather than trying to capture as much up-front IP as possible might result in faster-to-market products, and more inherent value than might happen through standard academic tech-transfer processes.

Platforms can be effective channels for communicating to a targeted audience, when you have clear metrics for who, what, and why. Different platforms serve different audiences. Knowing who you want to reach will guide your showcase (the what) and your ultimate why; to inform about what you are doing, to present for purchase, or bring into a larger debate about future possibilities.

2 Conduct due diligence and validation

Once you have defined your goals and criteria, you need to conduct due diligence and validation of the technologies that you plan to showcase. This means verifying the sources, claims, and evidence of the technologies, as well as their legal and ethical aspects. You may also need to test the technologies in real or simulated settings, or obtain feedback from potential users and experts. This will help you to assess the technical, functional, and operational performance of the technologies, as well as their risks and limitations. You may also use third-party certifications, accreditations, or awards to demonstrate the quality and credibility of the technologies.

At a biotech company at some point the manufacturing and testing of a drug candidate needs to be transferred to a contract manufacturer. The protocol is usually written by the originating lab. The first step is to send the receiving lab a tech transfer package with relevant information about the method. Then there is a discussion with the receiving lab to ensure that they understand the material that was sent. After the receiving lab has shown can run the method they are ready for running the test samples. The test samples are a set of at least 3 samples prepared by the originating lab that are run at both locations. If equivalent result are obtained from both labs, a method transfer report is written.

Alongwith established procedure ad predefined protocol, there should be due diligence between transferring unit and receiving unit followed by successful validation runs at receiving unit. This part of technology transfer involves verification of sources and real time simulation or/ and testing in production environment and feedback from potential end user and experts which in turn helps in assessment of technical, functional and operational performance.

3 Use clear and engaging communication

Another key aspect of ensuring the quality and relevance of the technologies showcased on technology transfer platforms is how you communicate them to the users and stakeholders. You need to use clear and engaging language, visuals, and formats that convey the main features, benefits, and impacts of the technologies, as well as their suitability and applicability for different contexts and scenarios. You may also use storytelling, testimonials, or case studies to illustrate the real-world problems and solutions that the technologies address. Moreover, you need to provide relevant and accurate information on the availability, accessibility, and affordability of the technologies, as well as the contact details and profiles of the technology providers and partners.

Knowledge transfer from transferring unit to receiving unit is key aspect for successful technology transfer. This includes product and process understanding by receiving unit alongwith problems faced and mitigating strategies/actions implemented by transferring unit. Knowledge transfer involves formal training, sharing of product development reports, operating procedures, protocols, manufacturing/processing and testing records, potential non-conformances, solutions based on product experience. Educating the team may involve storytelling, case studies, real world problems & risk based potential problems and solutions. Training should be followed by knowledge assessment and operators/analyst qualifications.

4 Update and monitor regularly

Technology transfer is not a one-time event, but a dynamic and continuous process that requires constant updating and monitoring. You need to keep track of the changes, developments, and outcomes of the technologies showcased on the platform, as well as the feedback, inquiries, and interactions of the users and stakeholders. You may also need to revise or remove outdated, obsolete, or irrelevant technologies, or add new ones that meet the changing needs and demands of the market and society. Furthermore, you need to monitor and evaluate the performance, usage, and impact of the platform itself, using appropriate metrics and analytics tools.

5 Seek feedback and improvement

Finally, you need to seek feedback and improvement from the users and stakeholders of the technology transfer platform, as well as from other experts and peers in the field. You can use surveys, polls, interviews, focus groups, or online forums to collect and analyze the opinions, suggestions, and experiences of the platform users and beneficiaries. You can also use benchmarks, best practices, or lessons learned from other similar or successful platforms to compare and improve your own. By seeking feedback and improvement, you can enhance the quality and relevance of the technologies showcased on the platform, as well as the user satisfaction and engagement.
