A technology exploitation target system is established and the contribution of the different exploitation strategies, such as spin-offs, joint ventures and licensing, to the different targets is evaluated. The influence of the characteristics related to the market, the exploiting company and the technology is then discussed. The decision-making model is developed and applied to the case of ""automated tissue engineering on demand"", which has been accomplished by Fraunhofer.en658670journal article
