Abstract
The term technology transfer appears to have been coined largely in the 1970’s. During that time, the concept of technology transfer began to emerge on an international scale and was quickly coupled with efforts to establish global opportunities for cooperation, collaboration, technical exchange and the creation of joint ventures to perpetuate the movement of technologies on a global scale. However, the origins of technology transfer have far deeper roots in our cultures than this recent period in history.
