Overview
- Currently, there are no books devoted to mathematical technology transfer
- The book shows the experience acquired in technology transfer to business and industrial sectors by almost sixty Spanish research groups using a standardised approach
- It details the level of knowledge, use, and demand for mathematical technology from a survey carried out on around 7500 Spanish companies
- All information is classified by sectors of economic activity
- The book includes a complete list of successful industry projects developed by Spanish research groups
- For each research group, both contact information and technology transfer experience is presented
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book
The book "TransMath - Innovative Solutions from Mathematical Technology" has been conceived as a tool for the dissemination of scientific knowledge. This publication is addressed to those companies with innovation needs that could be met through mathematical technology.
The book maps both existing and possible interactions and connections that enable technology transfer between Spanish mathematical research and industrial and business sectors. Businesses can determine the level of implementation and demand for such technology within their sector and understand the benefits and innovations achieved in other companies and industries with the application of mathematical techniques.
The information is classified into eleven sectors of economic activity: Biomedicine & Health; Construction; Economics & Finance; Energy & Environment; Food; ICT; Logistics & Transport; Management & Tourism; Metal & Machinery; Public Administration; and Technical Services.
