Companies that prioritize university partnerships often dedicate a piece of their business operations to identifying and managing academic research collaborations. To accomplish this, a company may form an academic research engagement team — a corporate organization specifically chartered to engage with academia on external research collaborations as an element of a broader innovation strategy. Academic Research Engagement Teams provide improved access to IP, ideas, approaches to problems, people, and capabilities that do not reside within the company.
Agenda Highlights
