TOGNATO, Carlo. Commercialize the technology generated from the universities: an institutional challenge. rev.ing. [online]. 2005, n.21, pp.30-39. ISSN 0121-4993.

The commercialization of university technology is an opportunity that Colombian universities have not systematically exploited, yet. To do so, they must undergo a process of institutional adjustment and learning, thereby filling the gaps that currently prevent them from effectively and efficiently exploiting their intellectual property. Here, I will identify some of the institutional factors that contribute to successful technology commercialization. I will then suggest a procedure to fill the existing institutional gaps and will finally propose an agenda for institutional adjustment that Colombian universities may apply to prepare for the commercialization of their technologies.

Palabras clave : Comercialización de la tecnología; universidades; start-ups; empresas spin-off.
