“These principles are intended to support more productive collaborations between university and industry research leaders while recognizing that the missions and objectives of the university and industry partner are distinct. It is a fallacy to assume they are identical, or even in all cases compatible or complementary. The challenge then lies in understanding how the missions and objectives of both sides differ, and to shape relationships that allow both sides to achieve their desired objectives. With these guiding principles as a starting point, strategies and processes can be brought to bear to develop collaborations in which the parties’ disparate missions, objectives, and constraints can be simultaneously addressed to achieve a more beneficial outcome.”

The following Summary serves as an interpretive guide, showing how the Guiding Principles relate to each case.”
