About the product

The abilities to create new technology and to acquire and adapt successfully technologies from both external and internal sources are critical determinants of a country's ability to compete successfully. While transfer of technology is a fundamental goal of many international instruments, especially in agreements involving developing countries, one of the main challenges is how to ensure that 'transfer and diffusion' provisions are given effect and translated into practice. This Compendium focuses mainly on the provision of those international arrangements that can promote and facilitate transfer of technology to developing countries.
