Unlocking inno­va­ti­on through uni­ver­si­ty business cooperation

A new EU publication provides an overview of the developments and issues related to unlocking multiple excellence and innovation through University Business Cooperation (UBC).

University Business Cooperation (UBC) plays an important role in unlocking inno­va­ti­on. Universities are central to the creation of “inno­va­ti­on eco­sy­stems” that allow different actors (mul­ti­na­tio­nals, SMEs, start-ups, students, policy makers) to work together. The new publi­ca­ti­on Unlocking systemic inno­va­ti­on excel­lence through UBC by the European Commission in the Reflection Papers Series presents examples of how UBC can be a practical approach to unlocking inno­va­ti­on and pre­sen­ting solutions. Stefan Humpl and Tanja Bacher from 3s are the authors together with Nadine Burquel (BCS).
