Terms and conditions for
technology transfer are generally
negotiated between the actors in the
transaction. In developing countries,
however, enterprises usually do not have
adequate technical support or advisory
services. Frequently, firms lack the
resources necessary to identify their own
optimal strategies, search for suppliers
of technology, and evaluate alternatives
for negotiating its purchase and
conditions.
In
most cases, new technologies need to be
adapted to the present business climate,
available local inputs, production scale,
and the commercial strategy in which they
will be used. This is precisely where
CODETI addresses its efforts in order to
increase the productivity and operational
effectiveness of companies.
Competitiveness and
productivity is directly related to the
ability to apply scientific and
technological advancements to the
production of goods and services. The
strengthening and development of
innovative systems plays a vital role in
assuring the link between technology,
production, industrial modernization and
business expansion opportunities.
CODETI's efforts to promote sharing of
information, technology and business
among countries contribute, in that
sense, to the industrial and technology
development, such as the work developed
with numerous entities as well as the
services delivered to enterprises, both
of them in different countries from
North, Central and South America, the
Caribbean, North and Central Africa and
the Middle East.
