Abstract

Technology transfer and innovation is one of the main challenge of the European Community
to "drive innovation and competitiveness by connecting knowledge, technologies and
people". In this field, the paper aims to present the results of technology transfer actions at
trans-national level obtained by NETTI - Network in the Energy Field: Technology Transfer
(TT) and Innovation, thanks also to effective cross cooperation with other TT networks
highlighting the importance of synergies and combining resources and initiatives. The lesson
learned shows the opportunities and the results that could be obtained by an efficient
collaboration between interregional and trans-national actions.
