'In this timely book, Professor Gordon Rausser explores the
changing landscape of university-industry relations, informed by
his unusual background as a pioneer in Public Private Research
Partnerships (PPRPs) while serving as Dean of the College of
Natural Resources at UC Berkeley. Scholars, administrators, and
industry executives who are interested in industry/university
partnerships will find a treasure of information and insights in
this beautifully written book.' - Steve P. Briggs, University of
California, San Diego 'As public/private partnerships have become
increasingly important to the funding of academic research, it is
essential not only to learn from past institutional experience of
such partnerships, but to create templates that optimize their
structure for both partners. In his important book, Structuring
Public-Private Research Partnerships for Success, Gordon Rausser
has set himself to both tasks. All those who think about such
partnerships will learn from this book.' - Carol Christ, University
of California, Berkeley University research has played an essential
role in economic growth by generating public good outputs that have
not readily lent themselves to private market development. As
funding for universities and governmental research units has
declined, these institutions have turned to the private sector to
augment their research and development budgets. This book presents
a framework for structuring public-private research partnerships
that protect both these institutions' academic freedom and the
private firm's corporate interests. The authors present a
four-stage framework that recognizes the critical role of 'control
rights' and reveals how these rights can be effectively identified,
valued, and allocated between research partners. The book provides
a number of template designs for a variety of research
partnerships, including tactics and strategies for implementing
successful public-private research partnerships. It further
provides case studies with examples of both successful and
unsuccessful research partnerships. The book demonstrates that
universities are empowered when they pursue private partners
actively and when contracts preserve academic freedom, address
confidentiality, specify intellectual property rights, define
access to proprietary data, clarify the conflict resolution
process, and address potential publication delays. This book is an
essential and illuminating resource for academic researchers in
economics and public policy departments, technology transfer
offices, as well as others involved in university and public
administration.
