Technology commercialization: tools for offering technologies protected through intellectual property

The commercialization of technology is an important process for generating innovation in a society, because, when a technology is developed and patented, it needs to be transferred to be implemented and become useful to the community, which often does not occur, because, the study issue is the gap between technology development, technology transfer, and more specifically the offer of technology to potential customers. Seeking to identify methods and tools to offer technology and systematically develop a robust guideline to be followed for offering technologies from Technology Transfer Offices (TTO), uniting the main methods found. Through the systematic literature review, information from several authors who study or correlate their studies with the proposed theme, seeks to condense this information and complement a practical solution developed through Design Science Research. That said, the main facilitators of technology offer and transfer were identified from a solid and current literature review, generating an ideal foundation for the development of a systemic artifact that seeks to serve as a robust guideline to be followed for the provision of technologies from of TTO. So that the technology offer process of the technology transfer offices of the various Science and Technology Institutes is viable and efficient, seeking greater effectiveness and commitment of new technologies as innovation for the social body as a whole.
