Academic-industry links and innovation: questioning the science park model
Article Abstract:
A UK study indicates that research parks by themselves are insufficient to stimulate the academic sector into producing technological innovations for industrial applications. It is shown that the location of industrial research and development stations are not affected by their proximity to academic research centers. However, it is recognized that the business environment in the UK is sufficiently delineated from the US model to significantly affect the recognized non-viability of the model.
