7 Great results to date from cooperation with South Africa South Afrika Canada Russia World USA Brazil/India/Japan China
8 Challenges for Norway and Africa Increase variety More competitive Improve productivity
9 Increasing demands from governments and taxpayers: Public INVESTMENTS in research must produce RETURNS to society!
10 Technology Transfer in Norway Professors privilege eliminated 1 January 2003: The (six) major universities subsequently established TTOs. Overall objective: dissemination of knowledge: Win-win partnerships with stakeholders, investors and industry. Operations: answerable to universities, but commercial mindset: Efficient production of spin-off companies & industry relations.
11 An ecosystem approach is essential!
12 Education: 2-year specialization in entrepreneurship. Recruiting both hard and soft sciences. First graduates 2005 now 30 students/class. Creating job makers, not job takers. New spin-off companies every year:
13 The Take-Off program an accelerator for new business formation exposing students to real-life case-learning
14 BEHOV AppLab - Offering students a creative meeting place and appropriate infrastructure for conceiving and cultivating ideas for new apps. - Located at the Department of Computer and Information Science, providing access to faculty members and industry. - The ambition is to create new, commercial successes.
15 20 Bridging the gap: Proof-Of-Concept fund. ZAR 79 mill over 5 years from the university, regional authorities and a local bank. Exclusively soft funding. Decisions by independent committee of techtrans professionals. No «red tape»! Result oriented.

22 Overall objective: improve global competitiveness in regional clusters through long-term internal and external collaboration Stronger interaction and cooperation Increased innovation capabilities Better access to R&D and education Stronger international focus Cluster expansion Attracting customers and investors Immature clusters 3-5 years 20 clusters NOK 3 mill/year each Mature clusters, national position 10 years 14 clusters NOK 5 mill/year each Improved competitiveness! GCE Mature clusters with global position 10 years NOK 10 mill/year each
23 Government support to the clusters: Financial support: 50% co-funding with cluster partners: Facilitation, strategy development, networking, branding, pre-studies Advisory services: Experienced project advisors Capacity building: Courses, seminars, study trips Networking: Between cluster projects, transnational cooperation PR: Cluster branding and communication All with a strong emphasis on internationalization!
24 Lessons learned Members of cluster tend to grow significantly faster, both in revenue and in # employees. Clusters accelerate regional development and provide vital input to national innovation strategies. Clusters also drive the development of new curricula at colleges and universities. A growing awareness in the business community to form partnership and a growing willingness to invest in cluster development!
25 It s all about people! i.e. people who are both able and willing to create and pursue new opportunities!
26 FORNY2020 / Student start-up stipends Covering living expenses and direct cost for up to one year (max ZAR 1,8 mill pr project). Universities have to support the project with facilities, office, equipment and mentors (scientific and commercial). Pilot is being launched as we speak, with ZAR 45 mill allocated for Odd M Reitevold 32
27 New program in : ZAR 160 mill allocated for governmental «gearing» of private pre-seed investors Offering un-secured loans to TTOs, using the TTOs as (unpaid) intermediaries: Government assumes all risk and all profits. Qualified investors and/or business angels must contribute minimum 50% of every transaction. Max ZAR 5 mill per spin-off company, that must be < 5 years old. Overall objectives are to complement and strengthen the nation ecosystem in order for more start-ups to emerge. The upside to the TTOs: Strengthening their position and negotiation power. Making more capital available to university spin-off companies.
28 Opportunities for win-win cooperation? Leveraging respective strengths of start-ups in different countries while mitigating their relative weaknesses? Involving faculty members at universities and their students? Securing funding from Eureka/Eurostars? ( and/or from national programs?
