Benchmarking Industry-Science relationships

The Benchmarking Industry-Science relationships project aims to establish international benchmarks that will help governments evaluate how well their research-industry interface functions.
A country's innovative performance increasingly depends on the intensity and quality of the interaction between the public research base, which includes universities and public laboratories, and the business sector.
The project identifies thus measurable outcomes of public-private collaborations, such as licences and formation of spin-offs, establishes a scoreboard of individual countries' strengths and weaknesses and develops policy guidelines to help determine priority areas for government initiatives in areas such as regulatory reform, intellectual property protection and research financing.
