Abstract

A technology transfer process increases research capacity so that inventions can be used by communities and industries. In Indonesia, the Centre for Innovation LIPI, as a technology transfer office, does this by instituting incubators. The Indonesian government create science and technology parks (STP) as facilitators of a knowledge infrastructure. Incubators have become a core element of STP programs to encourage development. This paper describes the development of business incubators and technology in STPs. This is a qualitative study that reviews the activities involved in technology transfer. The study discusses transforming business incubators to science and technology parks in an interactive technological environment in STP LIPI, which acts as anintermediary for commercialization.
