The Cabral-Dahab Science Park management paradigm: an introduction
Article Abstract:
The Cabral-Dahab Science Park management paradigm is presented and evaluated as a potentially successful university-industry interface. Guidelines are presented for the successful planning and management of a science park. Necessary park features include having access to qualified personnel, markets, having the capability to provide marketing, managerial expertise, selection of firms and protection for trade secrets, having a clear identity, a highly powerful and visible manager, a considerable number of consultancy firms, government backing and financially capable managers.

Refining the Cabral-Dahab science park management paradigm
Article Abstract:
Possible refinements of the Cabral-Dahab science park management paradigm is discussed with particular importance focused on type of markets accessed and type of research personnel needed. Refinements also point out that government backing may be necessary only if not enough support is garnered from a local university, that the identity of the park must follow certain criteria and that consulting firms play a crucial role in park survival.
