The posting by Giannia Lodata describing in detail the structuring of a counter-trade venture seems very strange for the devel-L listserv both because of its detail and the very specific nature of the form of the venture. And, particularly because there are no references or indications, other than the author's claims that the structure is the best alternative and that it has been successful only in this embodiment and that the internal structuring of the corporation, in any way has any relevance to the success or failure of such a venture.The posting parties and the person whose names are attached need to present significantly more information to give such a program any credibility with regards to its effacacy and benefits to any company seeking to develop technology transfer activities
At this juncture,IMHO, there are significant questions with regards to the value of the proposal and i look forward to becoming silgnficantly more enlightened
