Abstract

This paper aims to examine technology transfer as a driving force in innovation imple-mentation in the companies. In today’s highly competitive business environment, it is necessary to continuously innovate and measure the innovation performance in the com-panies. Innovations such as new ideas, development of new products and services, and commercialization of universities’ research and development results are a source of com-petitive advantage. The reason for cooperation between universities and companies is use of technology transfer for implementation of the new solutions from academia into business practice.
