Channels, benefits and risks of public–private interactions for knowledge transfer: conceptual framework inspired by Latin America

Abstract: There are both benefits and risks involved in interactions between public research organisations (PROs) and industry. This paper proposes a conceptual framework that associates firms' and PROs' motivations, channels of interaction and benefits. It suggests that each channel triggers predominant types of benefits and claims that policy-making to support PRO-industry (PRO-I) interactions should be selective. Policy design must take into consideration the skill-related characteristics of the actors, and the chara… Show more

“…Bekkers and Bodas Freitas (2008) suggest that the characteristics of the transferred knowledge, the characteristics of researchers involved, and the environment in which knowledge is produced and exploited determine the selection of a specific interaction channel. Subsequently, a related sub-stream examines the outcomes associated with the implementation of distinct interaction channels, such as the interaction quality and the associated risks and benefits within U-I partnerships (Arza 2010;Dutrénit et al 2010). Nevertheless, it remains an important challenge to nuance the effects of distinct interaction channels by considering short versus long-term goals, as well as acknowledge the role of the context by exploring outcomes across different sectors and collaborative projects with varying intensity of interaction (Schartinger et al 2002).…”

“…In this way, firms' main motivation for collaborating with universities is to identify and exploit technological opportunities. However, firms have other motivations for collaborating with universities, such as reducing R&D costs (e.g., testing and monitoring activities) and substituting inhouse innovation activities with external sources that often operate with subsidised costs (Arza, 2010;Bekkers & Bodas-Freitas, 2008;Bonaccorsi & Piccaluga, 1994).…”

“…Esse tópico foi explorado por Arza (2010), Bishop et al (2011, Tartari e Breschi (2012), D'Este e Perkmann (2011), entre outros. Por exemplo, Tartari e Breschi (2012) investigaram como as percepções dos pesquisadores sobre benefícios e dificuldades esperados das interações impactam sua decisão de interagir com empresas.…”

“…Alguns focaram o impacto das interações nos processos inovativos ou o seu papel para a pesquisa universitária (KLEVORICK et al, 1995;NELSON, 1996;COHEN et al, 2002). Outros trabalhos analisaram os fatores que afetam a interação e o modo como os agentes envolvidos avaliam tais relações e seus possíveis benefícios, resultados e dificuldades (ARZA, 2010;ARZA;VASQUEZ, 2010;BRESCHI, 2012).…”
