Abstract: Universities are a key institution in the U.S. innovation system,
and an important aspect of their involvement is the role they play in
public-private partnerships. This note offers insights into the performance
of industry-university research partnerships, using a survey of precommercial
research projects funded by the Advanced Technology Program.
Although results must be interpreted cautiously because of the small size
of the sample, the study finds that projects with university involvement
tend to be in areas involving new science and therefore experience more
difficulty and delay, yet are more likely not to be aborted prematurely. Our
interpretation is that universities are contributing to basic research awareness
and insight among the partners in ATP-funded projects.
