  CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is actively engaged in identifying technologies developed for its accelerator complex that could be profitably used by partner research organizations or commercial companies in applications with potentially high socio-economic impact beyond pure fundamental physics research. In the first part of the paper, an overview of CERN current strategy in the field of Technology Transfer and Intellectual Property Management will be presented, with details on the most effective models, implementation tools and processes developed to achieve satisfactory dissemination and valorisation of the knowledge generated within the Organization. In the second part, CERN currently available technology portfolio will be described with focus on cases originated from the Accelerator and Technology Sector. A selection of promising on-going projects embracing a variety of technology fields and application areas will be detailed to showcase technical challenges and possible benefits of initiatives driven by (but not limited to) the needs of CERN scientific programme.

  The CERN PS Booster (PSB) is presently undergoing an upgrade program to increase its beam energy from 1.4 GeV to 2.0 GeV. While this energy upgrade is targeted at LHC-type beams, the option of delivering 2 GeV beams to the ISOLDE facility has also been investigated. In this paper we present a preliminary study for delivering 2 GeV beams to ISOLDE including the physics motivation and the implications on the accelerator hardware.
