Abstract
Universities are agents of technological development that tend to generate better sustainable development scenarios; and for achieving this, they use tools such as technology transfer. This article aims to present the case study that evidences the technology transfer carried out by the Corporación Universitaria del Caribe CECAR, located in Sincelejo (Colombia). This research comprises a descriptive study of a documentary nature with a qualitative approach. The obtained results show that CECAR generates projects that are developed from the different Research Groups and that are transferred through its Entrepreneurship Center and its Technology Transfer Office - TTO. It is concluded that CECAR, through technology transfer, seeks to generate competitiveness and sustainability in the economic and social sphere of the region.
