University-industry collaboration

Kenneth A. Pickar, from the California Institute of Technology, discussed the growing importance of university-industry collaboration. Corporate central R D laboratories have been in decline, which has driven industry s need for academic research partners. Such interactions present equally compelling benefits to the university these include the capture of economic value, an environment attractive to young faculty, and contributions to the economic viability of the local community.

An important group of the questions raised by the faculty at UC are general to university-industry collaboration and are included in the attachment to this chapter. As universities heavily embark in partnering with industry, these questions are the kind of issues that will be of concern to those faculty who are not immediately involved in the collaboration. Hopefully university administrations will become apt at answering the questions.

The chapter is organised as follows. Section 2 briefly reviews the recent literature on university-industry relations. Section 3 provides an overall description of ULP Strasbourg and its contractual relationships. The descriptive analysis of the characteristics of the contracts carried out in the chemistry domain is developed in Section 4. Section 5 adopts an industrial economics approach to the analysis of entry and exit in the market or game of university-industry collaboration. In so doing we test for alternative interpretations of the changes that are occurring in university contract research behaviour. Finally, Section 6 presents the conclusions from our analysis. 

To analyse the entry, exit and persistence of ULP laboratories in university-industry collaborations we focus only on university-firm contractual links, excluding other institutions, i.e. national and foreign public research institutions...
