Technology transfer is defined as a process for conceiving of a new application for an existing technology. It is also defined as a process for converting research into economic development. The term technology transfer is also used to mean licensing intellectual property to a manufacturer for production in a product, or reducing an idea to practice in a prototype, or even the process of recording concepts of technology know-how in a professional paper or patent application...

I'll probably have the wood-grilled salmon fillet. The most important thing is to remember that I already have a good job, so the only pressure here is coming from me. Can't seem to help feeling a little nervous, though. I think the company is younger and smaller than I'd like it to be. I think managing a tiny R&D department would be easy, but I think they want more, and so do I. I don't know how much more, and I don't think they do, either.

During dinner:

VP of Something: So he works with good people, he's happy where he is... What do we have to lure him away with?
VP of Something Else: Money.

Later, as we parted ways:

VP of Something: We're totally gonna bag 'im.
VP of Something Else: Yeah, I've had my eye on him for a while.
