Successful Technology Transfer in Colorado: A Portfolio of Technology Transfer "Success Stories."
Colorado Advanced Tech. Inst., Denver.
The examples in this portfolio demonstrate how technology transfer among universities, businesses, and federal laboratories solve real-world problems, and create new goods and services. They reveal how, through strengthening the infrastructure joining private and public sectors, Colorado can better compete in the global marketplace. All of the programs in this portfolio have received support from the Colorado Advanced Technology Institute (CATI). The technology transfer success stories include: (1) biotechnology programs, such as Colorado Bio/Medical Venture Center (CBVC), Colorado Bioprocessing Center, and Colorado Institute for Research in Biotechnology (CIRB); (2) information technology programs, including Colorado Advanced Software Institute (CASI), Colorado Open Systems Consortium (COSC), Colorado Rural Telecommunications Project, Optoelectronic Computing Systems Center (OCSC), and SuperNet--The Colorado Computer Network; (3) technology transfer, such as Boulder Technology Incubator, Colorado Institute for Technology Transfer and Implementation (CITTI), Colorado Technology Action Consortium (COTAC), and Mid-America Manufacturing Technology Center (MAMTC); and (4) advanced materials, including Colorado Advanced Materials Institute (CAMI) and Center for Separations Using Thin Films (CSTF). Information is provided on how to find out more about CATI, and the 1993-94 CATI commissioners are listed. (MAS)
