Cultural differences between the US, Japan & Europe ( Annual Conference Heidelberg 2007)
what can we learn from the different approaches and environments - and what are the implications for government funding of our activities? Presentation (ASTP members restricted access)

Universities regenerating regions ( Annual Conference Heidelberg 2007)
Regional governments all want 'their' universities to play their part in regional regeneration. Generally we want to help but it's unclear what the role of TT should be. In this session we hear two examples of regeneration where university technology & expertise were a key part of the plan.

Ownership & incentive regimes ( Annual Conference Heidelberg 2007)
If our primary purpose is to see technology utilised, does it really matter whether academics own their own IP and what share of royalties they receive? Sweden successfully exploits IP and Cambridge flourished as a hightech region despite academic ownership of IP. Might it be a good thing if academics had a choice?

Building a reputation for innovation ( Fall Conference Athens 2005)
Universities love good publicity, a high profile and a reputation for innovation. We can help them - our technologies can be an excellent source of stories and news. How should we work with the media and PR agencies to generate publicity and maximum exposure – and thus a reputation for innovation. Arvind Salwan Presentation (ASTP members restricted access)
