Over the last several decades there has been a growing interest in
Research & Development (R&D) policy. This is particularly
so in advanced industrialized nations that have adopted science-
and technology- based strategies for national economic
competitiveness. The United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan
-- the three nations that are the subjects of this book -- share
this policy strategy. Each of these nations is committed to
hamessing the innovations that stern from scientific and
technological advance to promote national economic prosperity.
Governments can influence their nation's R&D efIort in three
general ways. First, they can directly fund the R&D efIort
through grants, loans, appropriations, or government contracts.
Second, they can provide tax and financing incentives to encourage
higher levels of private sector R&D. Third, they can use their
power to create inter-organizational collaborations that vastly
extend and expand the nation's collective R&D efIort.
University-industry collaborations are a principal type of these
inter organizational R&D efIorts -- and the focus of this
book."
