2017 has been a prosperous year for the Knowledge Transfer group, marking twenty years since CERN set up a reinforced policy and team to support its knowledge and technology transfer. Today, these activities are stronger than ever, having led to collaboration agreements across a wide range of fields: from medtech to aerospace, industry 4.0 and cultural heritage.The Annual Report aims to showcase the impressive breadth of CERN’s impact and its return for our Member States, which happens by creating value through technological, economic, societal, cultural and human capital.
