Abstract
The study identifies important drivers of university-industry collaboration in automotive, biotechnology, and electronics firms in Malaysia. Results indicate that R&D intensity has a significant relationship with university-industry collaboration. The research tends to support the view that only those firms engaged in R&D activities are willing to collaborate with universities. The highest likelihood of collaboration is with medium-sized firms. The positive image created by universities could attract more industrial collaboration.
