Abstract

The project identified the drivers of, and barriers to university-industry relations (UIR) and collaboration in Asia. A survey and case studies were conducted to examine capacities and limitations of the universities and the industrial firms, legal and market institutions including intellectual property rights (IPRs) arrangements, and any historical legacies and cultural factors. One finding from the Malaysian team is that contrary to most of past findings, medium firms rather than large firms are more likely to collaborate with universities. The project also produced final reports by five country teams explaining the determinants of current UIR in each country.
