Abstract
The management of technology (MOT) covers all the procedures needed to design and use technology by organizations to achieve economic and social objectives (Collins et al., Int J Technol Manag 6:3–28, 1991: 6). As such, it covers the acquisition, exploitation and transfer of technology, ‘new product development, project management, entrepreneurship, technology forecasting and planning, innovation and R&D management, knowledge management, intellectual property management and [the] strategic management of technology’ (www.iamot.com).
