Technology Transfer Association
Is operating since 2001
The members of the Association are Armenian organizations, which have developed advanced technologies in Organic andInorganic Chemistry, Instrumentation, Materials' Science, Molecular Biology, Biotechnology, Machinery, Electronics…
Mission : establishing links between Armenian technologies‘owners and organizations looking for innovative solutions.
Carrying out the assessment of proposed technologies.
Association cooperates with a number of Science and Engineering organizations, Science Associations, TechnologyTransfer organizations, Business Consulting companies andtechnology designers.

Generally, Technopark is the most effective model for new technologies development & commercialization.
However, this model has high start-up & operational costs that leads to greater risks especially in transition economies.
Considerable minimization of investment risks creates the opportunities for the companies:
To benefit by transfer of advanced technologies, which are developed in transition economies and unknown for science society of western countries
To get good opportunity for seizing the new markets for their technologies and products
To derive extra benefits from joined development of new technologies and products
Objectives
Joint projects - joint usage of equipment

1. The D-STEP is a Technopark “without walls”, where the physical common “roof” is replaced by a special management.
2. Technopark implements thorough 5-step filtering procedure of the pipeline projects. This procedure will be absolutely transparent for the investors of the Technopark's Financial Club - the stakeholders‘ representatives can join the experts at any step of this procedure.
3. Because on each step the inapplicable and unmarketable projects will be filtered out, the operational costs will be minimal.
4. The engagement of local specialists on some stages of filtering procedure additionally will reduce the operational costs.
