Research Collaboration Between a Small Technology Company and Universities: Results, Opinions, and Conclusions

Abstract

The incentives for research collaboration between industry and academia are discussed. The problems and the lessons learnt during several projects are analyzed, both from a university and an industry point of view. In the second part, the results of a big collaborations project between Solvias and several universities are shown, and the significant addition of know-how to the Solvias Toolbox will be addressed. Finally, the focus for the future catalysis research in Solvias is described.
