VALUES

We value innovation for the public good; maximizing – to the greatest extent possible – the information and products that will ultimately be available to the public through collaborative private and public enterprise.

We recognize the value of university-industry collaborations and the lost opportunity when successful agreements cannot be reached.

We value cooperative, multi-dimensional, long-term partnerships leading to accelerated collaborative efforts.

We value the development of a deep understanding and respect of the diverse goals, missions, and cultures among our universities and companies, and appreciate the synergy that they can afford.

We value each partner’s depth of expertise and strive to provide an equal opportunity for voicing that perspective.

We value an honest dialogue which is open to alternative and novel ideas, acknowledges differences, and manages conflict.

We value a mutual commitment to shared scholarship and expertise, training and professional development.

We value strategic, result-oriented thinking and the development of practical, active demonstrations.

We value the pursuit of efficiency and effectiveness, seeking to streamline transactions.

We value a commitment to principled and transparent negotiations.
