R&D Management and Technology Commercialization

Industrial spending for research and development  (R& D) initiatives is growing globally year on year, from both public and private investments. As this spending grows, so does the complexity of R& D organizations and processes. Hence, high-quality R& D management becomes increasingly important to streamline R& D processes. 

Intended for R& D managers and technology leaders in small, medium, and large enterprises, this book addresses questions such as how to align R& D with broader organizational needs, best practices for R& D hiring and team-building, how to select which metrics to be measured, and the process of moving a technology from the laboratory to the market.
