Sumy, 40022, Ukraine use of the open innovation concept. Meanwhile, in Ukraine which has a sufficiently
www.businessperspectives.org high level of scientific and technological capacity, universities do not fully respond to
market demands and do not receive the proper commercial results. One of the reasons
for this is that current methods and models do not allow justifying the level of techno
logy transferability. This article aims to present a methodological approach to assessing
the transferability of technologies from universities to the business environment and
to develop a method for determining the integral index of technology transferabil

CONCLUSION
The study substantiated options for assessing the level of technology transfer. They consider contempo
rary theoretical and methodological principles of technology transfer from universities to the business
environment.
A method for determining the integral indicator of the technology transfer rate calculated based on the
aggregation of indicators for each component of the above mentioned options is proposed. According
to the interdisciplinary nature of technology evaluation, this approach allows to see the overall level of
the technology readiness for transfer, to evaluate the degree of gravity of the technology readiness for
a specific component of the evaluation, to analyze its commercialization capabilities, and to draw con
clusions. The method provides a graphical and formalized interpretation of the results, which is suitable
for use when comparing investment projects, making decisions about incorporating technology into an
entity’s assets.
The study showed that in case of technology transfer from universities to the business environment, it is
worthwhile to follow the suggested guidelines for applying the choice of the technology transfer option
from the university to the business environment: 1) an option based on universitylicensed technology
sales developed and protected by the property right; 2) an option based on the establishment of type
“spin” companies by a university; 3) an option involving technology transfer in the form of startups; 4)
an option based on the conclusion of a joint activity agreement with/without the creation of a legal en
tity; and 5) an option of scientific and technical cooperation.
The choice of these options is proposed to be made on the basis of the matrix of the technology output
to the market planning, based on the ratio of the consumer value level and technological readiness
of technology. It indicates possible financing options in the case of choosing a particular technology
transfer option, allows evaluating the conceptual strategy of market technology development (the blue
oceans and red oceans strategies). The described provisions increase the validity of the assessment of
technology transfer options.
These technology transfer options should be integrated into the modern university – authority – busi
ness system. This will help to create a robust, innovative ecosystem, in which the university will take
the right place, and the transfer of technologies developed in it will become a function of the efficiency
of this ecosystem.
