This work gives the experience about the modifications made to the strategy for technology transfer of a chemical process, in order to assimilate technologies for biogas production with energetic purpose, turning it into a tool specifically for the latter and considering new elements, such as the environmental impact expected, that strengthen the basic strategy. From here were developed, based on the heuristic strategy, one technology proposal to produce biogas for energy purposes from the waste available in the sugar industry sceneries.

The development of biopharmaceutical products and processes needs the integrated application of regulations, the achievement of quality standards, high qualified people, multidisciplinary teams, the use of high technology and the application of technological transference from the research until the scale-up of productive process. In this sense, the adoption of the quality management is required starting in the R&D stages. This paper focuses in these topics ISO 9001:2000, Good Manufacturing Practices and technology management designed and applied in a Cuban biopharmaceutical enterprise. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The results are presented from the evaluation of management capabilities in the technology transfer as a strategy for the resizing of the sugar enterprise "Argeo Martinez", in Guantánamo province. The article suggests some ideas and solutions that should be developed in the future to improve the present results. The causes of the management capabilities main alteration, in the technology transfer process for the enterprise resizing, are identified, through the diagnose instruments and multicriteria analisis. It also presents the management deficiencies that hinder a major socioeconomic impact of the incorporated technologies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
