| Description | Journal: Science and Public Policy In 1999 a public policy change, significantly based on insights from a major Technology Foresight exercise (Forfás, 1999), resulted in major investment in S&T in Ireland. This investment focused on infrastructure and skills needs of the higher education sector, and was intended to develop innovative competence and Ireland's attractiveness to foreign industry. In this context an increasing policy concern of government has been to promote effective cross-sectoral research collaboration. Policy responses have been to establish collaborative research, programs to fund industry-directed research, and on-campus facilities to foster interactions. The experience suggests that increasing overall R&D funding does not result in more technology for industry, nor in more academic interest in collaboration. Some of the factors critical to successful collaboration are reviewed. |
