Abstract

This study reviews public-private partnership (PPP) experiences in Africa, identifying challenges, bottlenecks and barriers to their implementation. Based on a systematic literature review and supplemented by interviews with representatives of 12 African science granting councils (SGC), the analysis allows for discussion of the role of SGCs in facilitating partnerships that help drive science-based innovation in African businesses and industries. This study situates itself within broader debates on long-term research and innovation initiatives for sustainable development.
