Abstract:
|
In
recent
years,
research
collaboration
between
academic
and
corporate
scientists
has
become
a
matter
of
concern
for
policy
makers
as
well
as
research
managers
in
academia
and
industry.
Often,
both
in
public
research
policies
and
in
university
and
company
strategies,
science-industry
collaboration
has
been
presented
as
a
catalyst
for
advancing
science
for
the
benefit
of
society
as
well
as
for
the
involved
collaborators.
The
same
policies
and
strategies,
however,
often
emphasize
that
science-industry
collaboration
is
difficult
and
demanding
due
to
inherent
and
often
incommensurable
differences
between
the
respective
goals
and
processes
of
academia
and
industry. |
