The High-Level Technological Services (STAN) as Technology and Knowledge Transfer Resources for CONICET. Scopes and Limitations
Keywords:
technology transfer, science and technology systems, power device, researchersAbstract
In the last decade, technology transfer activities have been strongly promoted by the Argentine State, encouraging the creation of specific institutional areas that allow the academic sector to be articulated with production and government areas in order to formalize technology and social transfer. In this article we approach the conceptualization and operationalization of High-Level Technological Services (STAN, due to its initials in Spanish) as resources for the formalization of CONICET’s technology transfer activities. We surveyed the current institutional regulations, systematized the experiences acquired regarding technology transfer and made a series of arguments around contemporary debates on the relationships between science, technology and society. We conclude that STANs constitute a social construct and an active power device that sometimes limits the capacities, potentialities and territorial projections of technological and social transfer.Downloads
