    Large University-Corporate partnerships are often in the news, but what went into making them and is the value proposition to my organization worth pursuing? In this workshop, we will have some of the architects of these partnerships discuss how they came about and what went into building them. Through a series of presentations, exercises, and discussions, company, and university attendees will build a shared understanding of the opportunities and challenges in forming large value partnerships and, importantly, discuss how to maintain and sustain partnerships over the longer term.
