Ambiente regulatório no qual se inserem as instituições científicas e tecnológicas brasileiras e os aspectos comparativos com as congêneres da Alemanha e dos Estados Unidos

Abstract

This dissertation describes the regulatory and administrative context in which the Scientific and Technological Institutions (ICTs) in Brazil are operated, specially on Federal Institutions of Higher Education, as well as the regulatory environment experienced by universities and public research institutes in the United States and in Germany to perform technology transfer to the productive sector and society in general. Conceptually, these transfers were treated in a broader sense, beyond formally contracted arrangements. The scenario in which German and North American institutions operate has been described based on literature review; for the Brazilian scenario, the legal framework was also consulted and compared to operational issues faced by the public institutions cited. Thus, the purpose of the analysis was to find evidence of the facilitating or hindering aspects regarding the interactive practices of the ICTs with the business environment
