TII is a European independent association of technology transfer and innovation support professionals.

"From regional networking to international partnerships in technology transfer and innovation support"

Innovation and technology transfer never happen in isolation, but form a process in which networking and partnerships between the different players are an essential part. Networking and partnerships can be both formal and informal in nature and can take place in a limited geographical space for a limited period or can take on a global dimension and be constituted on an ongoing basis. TII’s 2008 annual conference will showcase different kinds of technology transfer and innovation support networks and partnerships which have been effective in different regions of the world and in different technology sectors and have involved partners of different profiles for different purposes.

The TII conference is the annual meeting place of technology transfer and innovation support practitioners from the world over who come together to share experience, exchange ideas and to build and strengthen their profession. Join TII in Valencia from 23 to 25 April 2008 to meet new partners and learn about new methods for developing your innovation support services and their international dimension.
