Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Research Program on the Management of Science and Technology: Transferring Technology to the Firm; Report of a Pilot Study in Irish Industry
During the summers, of 1972, 1974, 1975 and 1976, 81 firms in 12 indus tries2 were approached and asked to cooperate in the study. From this ini tial sample, there were two outright refusals, and four firms disqualified themselves because they were no longer involved in manufacturing. The firms were distributed among 12 industries (table 1) and are representative only of those 12 industries. One must be cautious in generalizing the findings to all of Irish industry, but in many respects the results have stabilized and the author would be very surprised if any major changes result from the addition of the remaining 14 industries.
