About the
Topic:
The development,
adaptation or transfer of technology is often critical to the successful
solution of a problem, whether in fulfilling a government contract or
marketing a new commercial product. However, the specific process for
accomplishing this insertion is dependent on the circumstances, constraints
and company experience. The panel members will describe the situation and
solution in each of their company situations with plenty of opportunity for
questions and concerns from the audience.
