infrastructure to develop multiple pathways for industry to access the knowledge and expertise in universities and research agencies. Such organisations therefore help to deliver sustainable development and economic growth of industry through: Supporting strategic manufacturing (and allied) industries and their enabling technology sectors. Giving greater access and direct exposure of SME firms to new and emerging technologies. Providing skilled technological assistance to a range of companies, particularly SMEs, who need and want varying degrees of such assistance i.e. extend the range of SMEs assisted. Facilitating collaboration and cooperation between new product development contributors. Stimulating and implementing collaborative activities between Multi-National Corporations (MNCs), SMEs and micro-enterprises and industry Associations. Establishing key mechanisms to enhance university and graduates and industry interaction. Disseminating industry best practices to companies on a coordinated national basis. Improving the capacity of national non-profit industry support organisations and centres of expertise to support the objectives of the IIW and its members working together. These outcomes can be delivered in the technology diffusion processes that occur within and also across “industry verticals“, and involve the application of technologies and skills which are pervasive and transforming in nature. 8.2.2 Key Actions and Activities in Technology Diffusion Technology Diffusion is a vital element of the total innovation process with the key activities being as follows: Initially identifying and analysing the needs of industry. Sourcing solutions to meet these needs including R&D. Diffusing the technology and information into companies, particularly SMEs and micro-enterprises. Adopting, adapting and implementing new technology/information by technology receptors. Improving performance of the companies through innovation. Providing feedback for further national improvement at each stage of this technology and information process. Many IIW Members have strategic plans containing a number of the key actions shown below, as well as conducting many of the key activities listed against each key action. 76 Improving Global Quality of Life Through Optimum Use and Innovation of Welding and Joining Technologies
