Abstract

Universities are under ever-increasing political and commercial pressure to engage with industry to convert their research into viable value-adding products and services. A longitudinal study by the Scandinavian researchers examining 25 university-industry collaborations suggests that aligning
goals and creating a flexible setup between partners in the early stages of engagement is crucial for its success.
