Transferring technology PENNTAP style

PENNTAP-the Pennsylvania Technical Assistance Program-is a statewide scientific and technical information dissemination network. In ten years of developing and refining its technology transfer system, PENNTAP has learned that individualized information delivery is essential to successful technology transfer. PENNTAP provides this individualized service, assisting clients in interpretation and application of the information as well as delivering it to them. With the quantity of scientific and technical information doubling every eight years, it is impossible for any one person to keep up with all new information that might have application to an area of concern. PENNTAP enables organizations to obtain information that is both current and relevant to their needs by delivering existing knowledge to those who can use it for the expressed purpose of producing results.
