Abstract
The book inquires into the similarities and differences in relationships between how universities and public laboratories interact with industry (firms) in developing countries as compared with advanced industrial economies. The book is global in scope, with research based in 12 countries. Existing studies on innovation systems are quantified and further avenues of research suggested. The evolution of Universities, research institutes, and firms, as key parts of any National System of Innovation (NSI) require study; their interplay and interactions change over time, depending on the stage of development of both the acting entities, and the intensity of the links between them.
