This book is a comprehensive handbook for structuring university-industry engagement programs that yield measurable impact. It addresses the nuts and bolts of collaboration, drawing from both research and the real-world experience of seasoned leaders from top-tier universities and companies. The authors’ solutions-focused perspectives arise from participation in UIDP, a one-of-a-kind association devoted to strengthening university-industry partnerships. 

The book is intended for university and industry relationship managers, contracts and grants administrators, innovation leaders, and technology transfer professionals in university-industry partnerships. It is also essential reading for government and foundation research sponsors in science, engineering, and medicine, as well as a valuable resource for academic researchers in management science who explore methods and practices for technological innovation.
