Panel discussion

New forms of university-industry collaboration

Interactions between universities and industry are one of the key elements of national innovation systems. University-industry co-operation has clearly intensified in recent years due to the complexity of technological innovations and the limited ability of internal corporate R&D capacities. Besides conventional forms of co-operation such as contract research and research partnerships, a number of universities and firms have experimented with new ways of leveraging innovation investments and activities.

This session will discuss potential new forms of university-industry collaboration and the role that policy can play in strengthening them

Day 2: The importance of IP management for universities

09.00

Panel discussion

Why is IP management a strategic issue for universities?

Universities in OECD countries and beyond adopt IP policies to enhance the impact of their research results. As a result of different national regulations, a diversity of legal and policy approaches exists. This has led universities to negotiate different IP arrangements with companies, for example. Smaller universities are also embarking on IP policies, but in most cases they lack the necessary expertise and experience to do so.

This session will focus on open issues in university IP management and provide a platform for exchange on best practices.
