DESCRIPTION:Universities play a major role in supporting innovation and c
 ompetitiveness in the UK. In addition to delivering outstanding research
  and teaching\, universities widely interact with all stakeholders in th
 e economy. There is a growing pool of evidence which demonstrates the po
 sitive contribution they make to the UK’s economic and social developmen
 t. However\, it seems that we still do not fully understand how to make 
 the most out of successful university–business interactions.\nIn respons
 e to this gap in the economy\, this report discusses how to unlock and s
 timulate different forms of collaborations between universities and busi
 nesses\, by drawing on a survey of 200 businesses\, and in-depth intervi
 ews with 14 companies.\n
