Technologies are essential inputs in
pursuit of the developmental goals of any country
in particular the developing countries to achieve
sustainable development and also have a crucial
role to play in achieving the Millennium
Development Goals. The majority of the local
industries in Tanzania use turnkey plants and
process machinery imported from abroad for
specific production lines. The imported
technology may not be completely fit to the local
conditions and it is the duty of the R&D
institutions to match it with the local needs and
conditions. Therefore, one of the major corrective
measures required is to promote technology
development and transfer from local R&D
institutions to industrial enterprises. This paper
focuses on how technological capabilities were
enhanced by R&D Institutions in the development
and transfer of technologies and the results of the
enhancement. The discussion of the findings is
based on the preliminary data collected from
questionnaires and interviews which was
administered to R&D Institutions in Tanzania. |
