An example of technology transfer and related spin-offs from space activities is described. From a Norwegian research laboratory, the company AME SPACE obtained Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) technology for application in a space project. This technology transfer, together with other space related activities, resulted in actual and potential spin-off's inside and outside the space market. It is calculated that these spin-off's are 4 to 5 times the value of ESA funded contracts and that they appear 5 to 10 years later.
