TWST: Would you give us a brief overview of what Competitive Technologies does as well as a history of the company?
Mr. Nano: Competitive Technologies was established in 1968 and is a global leader in identifying, developing and commercializing innovative life sciences, physical sciences, digital technologies and electronics. Competitive Technologies trades on the Amex under the symbol CTT. CTT has expertise and experience in being a value-added partner to assist technology rich universities, companies and inventors of all sizes to maximize the value of intellectual property assets. We also work with global clients to fill their technology wish list by utilizing our extensive contacts and networks.

TWST: How do you get access to interesting or appropriate technologies and what are the essential elements that go into your selection process?
Mr. Nano: We have an extensive global network working with potential licensees. CTT focuses on end-user customer requirements. Armed with their 'wish list' we use that knowledge and our expertise to deliver the appropriate technology solutions. There are obviously many sources for technology. You have public sources; there are over 6 million patents at the US patent office alone, plus there are patent offices worldwide and a huge warehouse of technology within corporations. Harvard Business Review estimates that only two-thirds of the intellectual property within corporations is being exploited.
