Although a number of developing countries have successfully allowed market forces to drive domestic innovation, in many of them technology transfer organizations (TLOs) have taken a leading role. The Kingdom of Thailand (Thailand) is no exception, and a number of agencies and programs in the country are encouraging the development and commercial dissemination of technology domestically. One such leading organization in Thailand is the Industrial Technology Assistance Program (ITAP), a division of the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA). In 2006 and with the assistance of ITAP, researchers at NSTDA developed a process to reclaim rubber from the waste of rubber factories, which has the potential to drastically improve the industry in Thailand.
