Adaptation of a UK SME's Innovative and Successful University-Industry International Technology Transfer Platform to Facilitate its Adoption in Japan

in - part Publishing Ltd是一家小型的英国中小企业，于2014年推出了一个网站，使大学能够直接和私下向研究活跃公司的高级管理人员发送最新研究进展的新闻，合作机会等。事实证明，这种创新的“技术转移”机制非常成功，英国几乎所有研究型大学，包括剑桥大学和牛津大学，都是订阅者，美国的顶尖大学（麻省理工学院、宾夕法尼亚大学、康奈尔大学等）和其他主要英语国家也是如此。该项目旨在帮助该公司将该系统推广到英语不是第一语言但有重要高水平研究活动的亚洲大学。日本的大学系统在许多方面与英国相当，财政支持将用于资助代表团前往日本会见主要组织、大学和公司，讨论如何调整公司的商业模式，例如，通过引入双语能力和建立当地母语代表。IN-PART的目标是成为全球技术转移的首选推动者。

IN-PART Publishing Ltd is a small UK SME thatin 2014 launched a website which enabled universities to sendnews of their latest research developments, opportunities for collaboration, etc., directly and privately tosenior managers in research-active companies. This innovative curated "technology-transfer" mechanism hasproved remarkably successful with nearly all research universities in the UK, including Cambridge and Oxford,being subscribers, as also are leading universities in the USA (MIT, UPenn, Cornell, etc.) and other majorEnglish-speaking countries. This project aims to help the company expand the use of the system by universitiesin Asia where English is not the first language but where there is significant high-level research activity.Financial support will be used to help fund missions to Japan, whose university system is comparable in manyways to the UK's, to meet with key organisations, universities and companies to discuss how to adapt thecompany's business model, for example, by introducing dual language capability and establishing local native-speaking representatives. IN-PART aims to become the global technology-transfer enabler of first choice.
