Question: One of the main areas of action is technology transfer. This transfer is focused on bringing together suppliers and buyers of new technologies and innovations and achieving agreements between the two parties. Actions of the WCTT include trainings and consultancy offered for scientists and entrepreneurs and carrying out technology audits within companies which can indicate any needs for new technologies. WCTT also assists in processes leading to agreements of international technology transfer. The typical process of approaching a client is composed of the five main steps. The first is focused on the analysis of the client's needs and also on the specific characteristic and conditions of its activities. It is in most cases undertaken as a technology audit. It results in providing a client with a proposal of solutions and new services adapted to its specific situation. If the offer of support is accepted, the next phase starts, which is the realisation of services and implementation of solutions. Upon completion of this phase WCTT, together with the client, evaluates effectiveness of the implemented services and their impact on the client's activities. Follow-up meetings then occur and WCTT concentrates on periodical monitoring of client activities and, if needed, offers further support.
