Importance of University-Business Cooperation
|
The need for closer cooperation between academia and the business world is underscored by the Europe 2020 strategic plan, the Lisbon agenda and the modernisation agenda of Europe. The European community has recognised the vital contribution to Europe’s competitiveness of University-Business Cooperation (UBC) to provide an array of benefits for HEIs, students, business and society alike.
The largest study into cooperation between European HEIs and business
The Science-to-Business Marketing Research Centre in Münster, Germany (S2BMRC) is proud to present the results of the first major study on UBC in Europe. Conducted for the DG Education and Culture at the European Commission (EC) during 2010 and 2011, the study not only measures the actual level of UBC (i.e. status quo) to provide a benchmark for European UBC, but also to outline potential reasons, influencing factors, drivers and barriers to UBC as well as offering recommendations for the future.
Some facts:
• Survey translated in 22 languages,
• 6,280 academics and HEI representatives survey respondents,
• 30 good practice UBC case studies.
We deliver this report for the sake of improving European UBC and interactions between academia and businesses. We look forward to your input and feedback.
