“…ii) Knowledge jointly shared between university and industry, where the creation and development of scientific and technological knowledge is shared between both institutions (Etzkowitz & Leydesdorff, 2000;Chesbrough, 2006). This flow indicator is represented by the content indicator of "Scientific-Technological Spillover", which is based on channels as joint publications; joint R&D projects (Perkmann & Walsh, 2007); joint supervision of Ph.D. and Masters thesis (Boardman & Ponomariov, 2009); and also new firm formation by university members (Ranga, Debackere and Von Tunzelmann, 2003;Gilsing, Van Burg and Romme, 2010).…”

In order to develop innovations, companies are establishing University-Industry (U-I) relations which are explained in theories like the Triple Helix. Maybe this traditional view it is not enough to describe what happens in Brazil. Followed by a growth of articles published internationally, companies in technologically stable industries seem to be incorporating high-tech outcomes from universities, boosting sectors that once were apparently inert. This research will propose a different approach on U-I relations, focusing on the Knowledge Flow. Results show that agriculture companies are increasing their relations as much as engineering companies. Such relations are mainly based on raw technologies or applied solutions. Start-up firms' relations are mainly based on informal contacts and patents are not used to protect technologies. The Silent Run shows that companies which appear to be technologically stable are now upgrading trough U-I, and patents does not seem to be the first option when protecting new technologies.

“…To that end, to their traditional role of generating and disseminating information, universities must add the ability to foster innovation via the transfer of technologies obtained from academic research enabling companies to manufacture innovating products carrying commercial potential. The government helps by coordinating, encouraging and supporting such relationships, performing the role of catalyst (Etzkowitz and Leydesdorff, 2000).…”

This case study researched organizational factors that affect the university-industry technology transfer (UITT) processes of a private university, chosen by its success and uniqueness in the Brazilian context. Stood out as factors: innovation among pillars of management; valuing of research and intellectual property; qualified students, teachers and managers; multidisciplinary research groups; stability of governing body; performance of the TTO, Technology Management Agency and Technology Park. Difficulties highlighted were: reconciliation of time between activities of professors-researchers, bureaucracy and centralization of administrative and legal support; valuation of research results; approach and negotiation with companies. Among suggestions are: granting greater independence to the structures in charge of UITT and making them self-sustainable; training agents in technology marketing, sale, and negotiation skills.

“…Inside such varying institutional arrangements of university-industry-state relations, the expected nature of the most acceptable relationship is extensively studied by Etzkowitz and Leydesdorff (2000). The construction industry, therefore, should try to attain some form of Triple Helix Model (THM) as explained by Etzkowitz and Leydesdorff (2000).…”

“…The construction industry, therefore, should try to attain some form of Triple Helix Model (THM) as explained by Etzkowitz and Leydesdorff (2000). Tri-lateral initiatives for knowledgebased economic development can be generated through the formation of strategic alliances among construction firms and academic research groups, with the common objective of realising an innovative environment under the proper guidance from the state.…”

PurposeKnowledge-based economies are popular in the present world. Simultaneously, universities are becoming more responsible for leading economic development through research. As a key contributor to the national economy, it is vital for the construction industry to move beyond outdated practices, and hence, reviewing the role of academic research in empowering construction industry with knowledge is essential. This paper focuses on how relevant theories conceptualise the expected role of academic research in the innovative development of an industry and the specific location in Sri Lankan construction industry. Design/methodology/approachFollowing a comprehensive literature review, empirical data were collected from Sri Lankan context with a mixed approach informed by a pragmatist philosophical stance. The perspective of academia and industry practitioners were deductively obtained through surveys and inductively explored through qualitative interviews. FindingsThis study provides evidence that academic research in Sri Lanka does not contribute effectively to innovative construction management. Due to the absence of industry-focused knowledge dissemination strategies, the academic-industry relationships are mostly non-research based. The industry lacks in research informed-decision making, leading to lesser innovations. Research limitations/implicationsThe research conclusions are more applicable to the developing-country construction industry contexts. Practical implicationsThe research urges the need for improved academic-industry research collaborations and strategic knowledge dissemination movements. Originality/valueThe research confirms academic research as a major integral part of developing construction industry in a knowledge-based economy. In establishing the expected role of academic research, the research revealed the current practice to be under-located. Hence, the research prescribes the necessary actions; research collaborations in major and subsequent requirements.
