Within the last decades, universities are increasingly expected and
measured by their direct engagement in collaborations beyond
academia. Exploring the potential that lies in university-business
collaborations, the present anthology attends to the dilemmas,
dualities, and challenges that follow such collaborations,
especially in the academic traditions of the social sciences and
humanities. Each contribution investigates how the human
perspective - a perspective that highlights how complex knowledge
and a deep understanding of human everyday life - enriches
companies' processes, products, services, and ideas. Some chapters
focus on collaborations between researchers and business
practitioners, others focus on teaching examples involving students
in the collaborative work with businesses and organisations, and
again others contribute with more theoretical considerations. By
gathering hands-on experiences, the book provides readers with
inspirations, reflections on, and insights into university-business
collaborations. This book, therefore, is intended for researchers
within the humanities and social sciences, who want to get a deeper
understanding of the practice of such collaborations. The Open
Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com,
