The aim of our study is to systematically review existing literature from the past five years on university-industry collaboration, with a special emphasis on their relation to innovation. We conducted a literature review with a systematic approach with the involvement of 29 studies from European countries, published between 2016 and 2020. Our results have revealed a rather homogeneous pattern of research studies focusing on university-industry collaboration in European countries.

This article summarizes and analyzes a set of 43 pieces of professional literature pertaining to paraprofessional supports for students with disabilities published between 1991 and early 2000. Twenty-six nondatabased sources and 17 research studies were included. The findings identify topical gaps in the literature, review the major databased findings, and present implications for the field. The review concludes with suggestions for future research that emphasize the need for more student outcome data, conceptual alignment of roles, training, and supervision, and the exploration of alternatives to paraprofessional supports.

Although university–industry collaboration has existed for a long time, activity has increased significantly over the past decade. Now, both higher education and industry are experiencing cultural change, and cooperation between the sectors is considered a social responsibility. If there is no longer a need to argue the importance of university–industry links, it is nevertheless necessary to examine in depth how they may be strengthened and improved, and how the various obstacles to further cooperation may be overcome. This article, first, assesses the benefits that arise from university–industry interaction. It then analyses the obstacles to university–firm cooperation and examines ways to overcome them.

This paper describes the shifting evolution of the relationship between one Swedish laboratory involved in the design of systems for computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) and its industrial and government partners over the past decade. It explores the impact of increasing intersection and new configurations of relationships between these previously distinct sectors on the development of CSCW both in terms of disciplinary knowledge and institutional structures to cope with this hybrid object. It finds that a micro-level, Latourian analysis suitably explains choices at a laboratory level, but that these specific issues take on their full significance in the context of changes in the broader social and policy spheres.

The collaboration between academia and industry—university-industry collaboration (UIC)—may occur according to different formats (multiple types) and recently has increased based on the third mission of the universities. This relationship offers advantages to both entities, addressing global challenges to their mutual benefit as well as benefits to society. Nevertheless, this relationship is complex and often appears threatening to both the university and industry through value and goals conflicts. In order to achieve success in this relationship, it is important to understand the three drivers that are part of UIC (i.e., the motivation for collaboration, the channel of interaction and outcome, and benefits of collaboration). Their understanding allows one to mitigate barriers, overcome differences, create an environment of trust and commitment, and consequently, achieve success of the UIC. This chapter aims to address these three main drivers of this relationship based on literature review.

This study applies a systematic literature review and qualitative content analysis to identify and synthesize key factors that enable collaborative innovation between industry and universities. Using a keyword search in the Web of Science database, the review identified 40 papers that were frequently cited on the topic. Results were summarized into seven main themes or central factors stimulating collaborative innovation: resources, university organization, boundary-spanning functions, collaborative experience, culture, status centrality and environmental context. This article elaborates on these ‘enabling factors’ and uses them to summarize a number of results from the reviewed studies regarding facilitators of collaborative innovation. The discussion focuses on how these factors relate and the extent to which they are amenable to policy intervention.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose a framework to improve the effectiveness of university–industry collaboration (UIC). This work enhances the existing body of literature and knowledge regarding collaboration and offers concrete steps to be taken for effective collaboration between universities and industries.Research MethodologyA literature review to study the best practices, impediments to collaboration and the various models proposed in the past for successful UIC was conducted. A workshop and focus-group meetings of practitioners and academic researchers was designed and organised to explore the current state of the university–industry engagement within the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) region and gather inputs regarding possible approaches to improve collaboration. The findings from the literature review and the results from this qualitative research regarding the approaches to improve the effectiveness of the collaboration were analysed.Results and implicationsThe study discovers that various measures have been proposed in the form of best practices or models to improve the effectiveness of UIC. However, these measures often address a specific concern such as technology transfer, intellectual property (IP), etc. There is a scope for a comprehensive holistic framework to address many aspects of UIC in order to improve effectiveness and achieve success. A framework for improving the effectiveness of collaboration considering a comprehensive list of factors operating in a broad context within the collaboration system was proposed.Originality/valueThe framework builds on previous literature dealing with measures for successful UIC. However, it is the first of its kind, in the researcher's knowledge, in terms of comprehensiveness of the factors contributing to establishing and sustaining successful collaboration. The value of the individual experience of the participants in this qualitative research, which is on average more than 10 years in the software engineering field, validates the importance and quality of the data collected. The addition of these results to the framework increases its validity.The framework can be utilised by universities and industry practitioners to foster successful and effective collaboration. The results have significant relevance, particularly within the Australian context as the government has intensified the adoption of measures to encourage and improve collaboration between universities and the industry.

Abstract Background Because of progress in antiretroviral therapy (ART), fewer people with HIV experience virologic failure with multiclass resistance. We sought to estimate the prevalence of multiclass resistance since the introduction of INSTI-based regimens using a systematic literature review. Methods A systematic literature search using PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library was conducted of articles published since 2008, the year when INSTI-based regimens for treatment-experienced people with HIV became widely used. Bibliographies of existing literature reviews, websites of European and International organizations reporting data on HIV and AIDS, and abstracts presented from 2016–2018 at conferences were searched to identify additional relevant studies. Using predefined criteria, two reviewers independently reviewed studies reporting multiclass (three-class or greater) resistance in persons with HIV infection who are treatment experienced and were either perinatally infected or infected as adults. Studies from Western Europe, Australia, Canada and the United States (US) using any type of resistance definitions and resistance tests were included. Results A total of 441 unique articles were identified, 343 were excluded during level 1 screening and 98 articles were included for full-text review. A total of 34 articles (11 US studies, 3 from Canada, 1 from Australia, and 19 from Western European countries.) met the inclusion criteria and were included in data extraction analysis. Over the past decade, a modest decrease in the prevalence of three-class (NNRTI, NRTI, PI) resistance was observed in studies from the United States and Canada, ranging from 8.3% in 2009 to 6.7% in 2014 (Figure 1). Western European countries and Australia showed similar trends. The prevalence of 4-class resistance (including INSTIs) with virologic failure in the current treatment era is low, less than 2% (Figure 2). Conclusion The prevalence of multiclass resistance has decreased over the past decade, with three-class resistance continuing to decline and four-class resistance rare. Although the population with treatment failure and no viable options for a suppressive regimen is currently small, this group of people with HIV are in urgent need of novel treatment options.

The rise of e-commerce has brought considerable changes to the relationship between firms and consumers, especially within international business. Hence, understanding the use of such means for entering foreign markets has become critical for companies. However, the research on this issue is new and so it is important to evaluate what has been studied in the past. In this study, we conduct a systematic review of e-commerce and internationalisation studies to explicate how firms use e-commerce to enter new markets and to export. The studies are classified by theories and methods used in the literature. Moreover, we draw upon the internationalisation decision process (antecedents-modalities-consequences) to propose an integrative framework for understanding the role of e-commerce in internationalisation
