The following research methods were invoked: FARE method, allowed to calculate weights of each technology transfer performance indicator, when TOPSIS method redress all different indicators’ results and rank universities. The application of the proposed methodology was based on empirical data collected from Lithuanian universities. The results of the study reveal the importance of science business partnerships, TTO competence and scientists’ trust of TTO, applying particular technology transfer policy.
