Forecast 2009

Despite the good results obtained in 2008 the observed trend changes and forecasts for 2009 are worrying: expected growth in 2009 of the income of Fedit technology centers from - 2% and 6%, well below the growth of 19% in 2007 and 11% in 2008.

Fedit appealed to the Government to ensure that it provided to the Ministry of science and innovation the weight it deserves

With data from 2008 and 2009 estimates, Fedit detects that the impact of the crisis on the supply of r & d will be heterogeneous at the time due to the different participation in its application of sectors concerned as well as the heterogeneous form that is shared between the different players in r & d public investment)(priorities and policy needs).

It is anticipated a greater orientation of the technological offer towards that exploitation towards investment. Fedit warns of the possibility of medium-term technological disinvestment by lack of investment, risk and loss of value of the offer by the current marketable technology stock depletion.

He is also an extension of the framework of exploitation of the technology by offering: sectoral and geographical diversification of the technological offer (new market) and especially foreign.

Probably there will be a boost of new ways to transfer the accumulated as a creation company, licensing of intellectual property and patents increased. The first is possibly warranted that maximize the value created in supply and its appropriation of profitability.

Fedit appealed to the Government to ensure that it provided to the Ministry of science and innovation the weight that is providing you with budgets consistent with a firm commitment by the science and industrial competitiveness through r & d.
