		However, as Minister Mangena has said, DST will now be putting an emphasis in providing technology assistance across a range of sectors, rather than simply running a handful of projects that could be run by other sector-specific departments.
		Technology Transfer is generally driven by imperatives to introduce manufacturing efficiencies, value-added product developments, novel products for competitive strength, efficiencies in service provision and also quality of life improvements in terms of access to basic goods and services.
		These changes, which are intended to strengthen research and technology in South Africa and ensure robust and sustainable institutional frameworks, we achieved as a result of the effective and constructive partnerships being forged with a number of Departments.

	Technology, Jobs and Inequality
		Whether technology is 7% responsible, or 25% responsible, is a significant difference, with large implications for policy and remedies.
		Throughout the decades of the Cold War, U.S. science and technology policy was not only dominated by military priorities, but also by a model of decision-making that relied exclusively on experts and the "high priests" of academia, think-tanks, the military-industrial complex, and government.
		To reform technology so that it helps turn back the trend toward greater inequality, we need to understand the social content of technological developments, and once we understand that, we can begin to reconfigure technology so that it serves everyone equally, instead of rewarding only the few.

	Former defense minister says UFO technology may save Earth
		A former Canadian defense minister is demanding that world governments disclose alien technology that could be used to solve the problem of climate change, a local newspaper has said.
		Hellyer, who served as defense minister in former prime minister Lester Pearson’s cabinet in 1963, says knowing the fuel technology used by alleged aliens for driving their saucers or UFOs could eliminate the burning of fossil fuels thus saving the planet from the perils of climate change.
		The reason the alien technology is being kept hidden away is that oil is the game now, and cheap renwable energy is the biggest threat to the domination of the global wealthy Elites.

		ICT is the underlying technology enabling this information and knowledge to be better utilised and is therefore a driver of much of the innovation that occurs across the economy.
		The use of technology and ongoing innovation will be critical to ensure that Australian industry responds by moving even further up the value chain.
		At the end of the day technology policy, just like the rules for investing in technology that I mentioned at the start of this speech, is often a matter of keeping it simple.

		In many of the new technologies, innovation rather than size is what matters and it is not just possible, but commonplace, for a very small company, with limited resources, to compete with the best.
		And as the technologies themselves change, so too their impact on our lives, and in particular on the world of commerce which is changing constantly.
		This agreement promotes the exchange of information and technology transfer between Ireland and India and is expected to lead to improved relations between Indian and Irish Companies particularly in the form of joint ventures and strategic alliances.

	The Prime Minister, Science And Technology
		In recent years, certain new technologies, as well as perfectly rational scientific conclusions, have been attacked by protestors motivated by various agendas, none of which seems to include either reality or reason.
		Of course, that is nothing new: a couple of hundred years ago, people rioted in the streets of London in protest against the idea of vaccination against smallpox.
		We therefore applaud the Prime Minister's insistence that vandalism is not the way to resolve issues: the current field trails to determine the environmental effects (if any) of growing transgenic crops in this country must be completed so that we actually know what those effects might be.

		The Department of Science and Technology is also aware and mindful of the significant changes that are currently being implemented within the higher education system, especially as this applies to research and research outputs.
		We do not only need to intensify these efforts in schools that are in our townships and villages, but we should also engage in a process of maximising our coordination efforts with our business sector and other partners that are engaged in capacity building initiatives in the spheres of education and training.
