Abstract

By taking the decision to scale up your technology, you have taken a big step towards the real world and the eventual conversion of your technology to an innovation. Your scaling-up operations will build the bridge between the lab and industrial application and they can, in general, be rather complex. In many cases, it may be to your advantage to seek a partnership either with a potential implementer or a contract research entity specialising in technology transfer and industrial development. Although every technology requires a different approach to scaling up, the decisive evaluation at the end of the day will be the one made by the potential implementer or end user.
