August 10, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c22094) has announced the addition of Technology and Knowledge Transfer in China to their offering

The topic of technology transfer is a subject of considerable interest to many groups, such as government policymakers, international funding agencies, and business executives. This is due to the close relationship between technology transfer and economic growth. The subject has aroused the interest of academic researchers but despite all this attention, the concept and mechanisms of technology transfer remain vague, controversial, and inadequately operationalized.

Richard Li-Hua examines and addresses the key elements of how to achieve successful technology transfer. The results will ultimately assist in assessing the efficacy of transfers, and may inform the decision-makers in recipient and donor organizations that impose contractual provisions requiring technology transfer.

Topics covered include:

- Philosophical notions and structure of the book
- Development and current state of understanding of technology transfer
- Technology transfer in the construction industry in China
- Theory and practice of knowledge transfer
- A World Bank financed project in China: Xiaolangdi
- A study of Jiangsu, Henan and Xinjiang
- A structured survey in three different economies
- Correlation between knowledge transfer and economic development
- Conclusion
