Vol. 75 No. 11 (2021): Industry-Academic Partnerships

This special issue representatively highlights outstanding scientific partnerships between industrial and academic groups, with the aim to sustain the awareness “of what others are doing, applaud their efforts, acknowledge their successes, and encourage them in their pursuits.” – Jim Stovall.

It is with great pleasure that the Editorial Board of CHIMIA thanks the guest editor Prof. Christof Sparr for the successful realisation of this special issue on Industrial-Academic Partnerships demonstrating the synergy and potential that can arise from combining the best of Industry and Academia.
