One way the FLC encourages participation in the technology transfer process is through its awards program. Each year, groups and individuals are honored by the FLC for their work in projects that advance the mission of technology transfer.

Excellence in Technology Transfer Award: One of the most coveted awards in the field of technology transfer, the FLC Awards for Excellence in Technology Transfer recognize laboratory employees who have accomplished outstanding work in the process of transferring federally developed technology to the marketplace. A panel of experts from industry, state and local government, academia, and the federal laboratory system judge the nominations.
