The VT (Transfer Vehicles) project tries to address, from a cross-border perspective Galicia-North of Portugal, the possibilities of the different ways of transferring knowledge from the university to the company. Contract research, transfer via licence and the creation of technology-based companies are the three key work axes of this project, which aims to explore the new possibilities offered by cooperation between the different institutions involved in the transfer processes in the Euroregion.
