| description | <p class="first" id="d267434e138">This paper integrates the contributions from different branches of the technology
transfer literature to identify enablers driving the transfer of intermediate or appropriate
technologies to recipients in rural areas of developing economies. An in-depth analysis
of the literature shows that many enablers identified in the literature focus on high
technology transfers and are of limited relevance in the context of rural enterprises.
Other important enablers in this specific setting are ignored or insufficiently considered.
This paper proposes a framework comprising a specific set of enablers that facilitates
technology transfer in rural enterprises in developing regional economies.
