The main forms of technology transfer and introduction are: introduction and transfer of complete sets of equipment, cooperative production, compensation trade and joint venture.
Due to the different degree and nature of technology transfer, technology transfer can be divided into four basic types:
1, patent right transfer. Patent transfer refers to the form of technology transfer in which the patentee, as the transferor, transfers the ownership or holding right of his invention-creation patent to the transferee.
2. Transfer of patent application right. The transfer of patent application right refers to the form of technology transfer in which the transferor transfers his patent application right for a specific invention to the transferee.
3. Patent licensing. Patent licensing refers to the form of technology transfer in which the patentee or licensor, as the assignor, permits the assignee to exploit the patent within the agreed scope.
4. Non-patented technology transfer. The transfer of non-patented technology (technical secret) refers to the form of technology transfer in which the transferor provides the non-patented technological achievements it owns to the transferee, and the right to use and transfer the non-patented technological achievements is clearly defined between the two parties.

The transfer of intellectual property rights in technology trade includes
1. Transfer or license of related patented technology.
(1) Transfer of patent application right;
(2) Transfer of the patent right;
(3) patent licensing. In practice, the transfer of ownership is rare, and the vast majority is the transfer of the right to use, that is, the patent exploitation license, and the patentee permits the licensee to exploit the patent within the agreed scope.
2. Licensing of trademark rights.
Simple trademark transfer or license cannot be regarded as technology transfer activities. In fact, technology transfer is often a comprehensive act of using various intellectual property rights in trade, including the transfer or license of trademarks. Under normal circumstances, as long as the technology supplier is willing to provide technical secrets to the recipient, it will also agree to provide the other party with the right to use the trademark.
