4th D-8 Technology Transfer Award Ceremony
4th D-8 Technology Transfer Award Ceremony To Be Held at Gebze Technical University on 22nd May 2024
The Technology Transfer and Exchange Network of the D-8 Organization for Economic Cooperation, known as D-8 TTEN, was initiated in 2012 in Dhaka, Bangladesh based on the approval given at the Third Industrial Ministers Meeting of the D-8 member countries, and its secretariat was established at Pardis Technology Park in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The aim of this effort was to develop cooperation among the D-8 member countries in the areas of technology transfer and to absorb advanced technologies and move towards a knowledge-based economy.
Consequently, the idea of awarding the “Technology Transfer Award” was suggested at the second supreme council of the network in Nigeria in 2015. This prestigious award recognizes outstanding achievements in this area, promoting closer cooperation and a more advanced technological landscape across the D-8 countries. Gebze Technical University is pleased to host the 4th D-8 Technology Transfer Award Ceremony.
