Analogous to the Richter Scale for earthquakes, you introduce the Scale of Technological Magnitude (SMAT in Italian), an event scale to quantify the size and impact of technology transfer in geo-economic environment and adopters. It is based on number of technological contacts and computed...

The purpose of this research is to analyse the spatial behaviour of technological transfer for understanding the inner dynamics. The data of some research labs, located in the Northwest Italy and operating in the technological fields, are used. The results have shown a superposition of behaviour...
