SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE Scientific knowledge refers to the scientific and technological knowledge and skills needed to develop future R&D activities, generally through the academic and scientific learning and experience of highly qualified personnel. It refers to the mastery of state of the art in a scientific discipline and scientific methos as a methodology that permits the creation of new knowledge through R&D projects with a high degree of uncertainly as to the success of the project and of the application of its results This type of technology-producing knowledge is mainly available from universities, research institutes and technology centres and somewhat less in companies. The technology for transfer appears as the result of R&D activities, which is new technology, non-existent prior to the R&D project For instance, the technological and academic mastery of the technology for nanostructures in materials that allows a new technology development project
9. 6. TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE This refers to technical knowledge and skills that are generally concealed (as part of the know-how and experience of individuals inside an organisation) or in the public domain (regulations, laws etc…) destined to render more or less advanced services of advice/consulting, assistance, enginineering, test, trainning or similar These services are already available in the market (there is no uncertainty as to their business application because they have previously been rendered) They tend to be very specific and are privided by means of special infrastructure (mechanical test bed, advanced electron microscope etc…) and are priovided by experts in their fields. Technology centres and companied are the most common providers of this type of knowledge as are universities and research instituted. For example, advisory services for the choice of the best technologgy available for the treatment of industrial waste or for standards compliance testing in the European Union for a solar collector imported from China. www.yourlegalconsultants.com [email_address]
10. 7. CAPITAL GOODS AND ICT These are capiel and knowledge intensive material assets that are already available in the market and are an important source of technological innovation for certain companies. In this case, the technology is concealed inside the capital goods (machinery, equipment, production plant etc…) in the form of knowledge and property rights As particular case, it is also possible to consider information and communication technology (ICT) as a category of technology, giben that the incorporation of specific advanced software or hardware often gives a huge competitive advantage. Capital goods and ICT are almost exclusively marketed by companies. On certain occasions, software developments by universities, research instituted and technology centres can be included in the first-category (property rights) owing to the innovation and particular features of the developments. Outside of this, typical examples of this type of technology are high-speed automatic packaging machinery for the food processing industry and the computerised enterprise resource planning (ERP) system used in the wine-making industry. www.yourlegalconsultants.com [email_address]
