Abstract

This paper explores the extent to which firms perceive to benefit from university-industry collaborations in their innovation processes, building on survey data from 232 Norwegian firms. We find that firms experience not only direct innovation benefits from collaborations, but also indirect benefits in the form of closer proximity to universities, which can in turn improve future collaboration. We compare the reported outputs from various types of collaboration, finding that firms engaging mainly in research-oriented interactions more often report that collaborations result in innovation than those engaging in education-oriented or more informal collaborations. However, education-oriented and informal collaborations are equally important for building cognitive, organizational, institutional and social proximities between firms and universities.

产学合作如何促进创新?不同合作类型的直接和间接成果
本文以232家挪威企业的调查数据为基础,探讨了企业在创新过程中从产学研合作中获益的程度。我们发现,企业不仅能从产学合作中获得直接的创新收益,还能以更接近大学的形式获得间接收益,这反过来又能改善未来的产学合作。我们比较了各种类型合作的报告产出,发现主要参与研究型互动的企业比参与教育型或非正式合作的企业更常报告合作带来了创新。然而,以教育为导向的合作和非正式合作对于在企业和大学之间建立认知、组织、制度和社会联系同样重要。
