The CSIR R&D Outcomes portfolio is responsible for the effective protection of intellectual property (IP), technology transfer, knowledge dissemination and the assessment of the impact of the results of scientific research for the benefit of society and the economy.
Intellectual property consists of a set of interventions that ensures that maximum benefit is derived from scientific research for both private and public interests.
Technology transfer is the process by which intellectual property is turned into a viable product or process, which generates commercial returns, or is available for use to the benefit of the public.
Impact assessment
The impact assessment area is concerned with planning, monitoring and evaluation of the impact of CSIR R&D on society and the economy.
