LEN, a strategic state owned company has the mission to support the national developlnent in the field of professional electronics which includes electronic railway signalling systems.

Transfer of technology cooperation is one of the methods chosen by LEN to increase the capability in  electronic railway signalling systems.

This paper will present a picture of the technology transfer process experienced by PT. LEN INDUSTRI in cooperatioll with the Signalling Companies from Australia, UK, Netherlands, France and USA.
