Edson Mwabukojo

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: Despite technology capacity being low in Tanzania, technology transfer strategy is limited applied in the country. Inadequacy of political will, lack of adequate of technology transfer institutions and lack of readiness be among the main factors that had hindered the applicability of technology transfer approach in Tanzania. Despite the fact that technology transfer approach is not adequately applied in Tanzania, the strategy is still potential not only in Tanzania but in the Sub Sahara African region. Since, least developed countries are in advantage position to access technologies from the rich countries, it will be a mistake to continue to ignore the strategy despite the fact that the approach is proven to be profitable.
