Research vs. Industry
Benefits from collaboration between research and industry

The distance between new knowledge and new product is called the Technology Transfer (TT) ‘gap’.  It is clear that the ‘gap’ can only be ‘bridged’ by truly effective collaboration between research and industry working together. The Technology Transfer Working Party has produced a document exploring incentives and motivation behind research and industry collaboration to get a clear view of how the problems might be addressed.
In summary, the benefits of collaboration are:
 
To academia
  • Access to industry-scale populations and data
  • Increased relevance of research outputs
  • Access to public and private technology transfer funds  

To industry

  • Access to large-scale research infrastructures
  • Opportunity to influence the direction of research
  • Access to public funding to aid industry development

These are not so different after all….
