University – industry collaboration
« A succesfull university-industry collaboration should support the
mission of each partner. Any effort in conflict with the mission of
either partner will ultimately fail. »
University
- the education of students, the creation of
Knowledge, and the dissemination of knowledge
Industry
- to create value for investors, provide usefull goods and
services, and expand the state of art
