Knowledge Transfer Accelerating Innovation slide 7 The Knowledge Transfer Group The Knowledge Transfer Group has the objective of promoting, supporting and maximising knowledge and technology transfer from CERN to society and serves as the focal point for all CERN knowledge and technology transfer activities. In particular, the KT Group is in charge of the following activities: Technology Transfer and Intellectual Property Management Life Sciences CERN Global Network KT HR Induction Program

Knowledge Transfer Accelerating Innovation KT HR Induction Inspired by CERN’s principle of maximizing the benefits for society, the section acts in support to the valorization and transfer of CERN technologies to external partners and provides the Organization with services related to the management of Intellectual Property. slide 8 Technology Transfer and IP Management Section KT HR Induction Program Implementing an effective “Balanced Innovation Model” Pure Open Science Vision Application Oriented Approach Foster and show CERN technologies impact on society Support competitiveness of Member States industry Dissemination of knowledge generated at CERN
