摘要：
Economic growth in the emerging economies has been attributed to technological entrepreneurship and industrialisation. In South Africa there have been various initiatives by the government and private sector to jump-start industrialisation and promote national economic growth. The paper brings fresh thinking in linking the concepts of technology colony and industrialisation. A definition of technology colony is provided to enhance the understanding of technology transfer as a stimulant of industrialisation processes. Strategies for promoting industrialisation and national economic growth are discussed and recommendations are provided.
