PUBLIC-PRIVATE COLLABORATION ON KNOWLEDGE GENERATION AND APPLICATION IN NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

This chapter focuses on public research as one possible external source of knowledge available for private companies seeking scientific support in relation to product development projects, and analyses inter-organizational relations between public research institutions and innovative firms including enabling conditions for effective knowledge creation in such public-private interactions. Two case studies of product development projects based on sensor technology are used to illuminate how innovation is carried out in such interactions. The chapter concludes with extracting crucial features for successful public-private collaboration on knowledge creation and innovation.
