Site Visit,
Oxford, United Kingdom, 14 September
2007
In association with Isis
Enterprise
|
|
|
|
|
This is
the first in a series of fly-in, fly-out site visits that ASTP is organising
to leading Technology Transfer Offices around Europe.
We think that these visits will give valuable insights into the way that
such offices operate, and of their organisation, genesis and underlying
principles vastly more than listening to any presentation or visiting
any website. The take-home messages are likely to be very personal
itll be down to individual members to decide what they can apply back in
their own environment.
The one
day events are structured as a series of talks but with plenty of time
for facilitated discussion. Numbers are limited to 40 participants in
order to preserve an informal atmosphere. We are doing everything we can
to keep the administration and participant costs right down including
on-line credit-card-only registration and a timetable that allows you to
fly in and fly out on the same day.
