0219161LesterThis award supports Fraser Fleming and a student from Duquesne University in a a collaboration with Seija Kulkki of the Center for Knowledge and Innovation Research at the Helsinki School of Economics in Helsinki, Finland. The project will focus on the impact of different external and internal forces on the economic role of the universities, particularly the technological universities and thus on the nature of industry-university interactions. Implications for this dynamic relationship are to be found in many aspects of business development and entrepreneurship in Finland.While many scholars have written about the importance of research universities in the growth of agglomerations of high-technology industry and of close ties between universities and industrial organizations as a contributor to economic development, much remains to be learned about the dynamics of the process. The main questions to be addressed by the present study are how the universities are adapting to the chances in external forces that affect them, how the missions of the universities are changing in response to changing conditions in society with respect to stimulating regional growth, and what organizational structures and processes are used to help technology transfer and business incubation. The collection and analysis of data will be done in conjunction with the group in Helsinki and several junior researcher from the US group will participate in the international collaboration.

[0219161]莱斯特该奖项支持弗雷泽·弗莱明和一名来自迪肯大学的学生与芬兰赫尔辛基经济学院知识与创新研究中心的Seija Kulkki合作。该项目将侧重于不同的外部和内部力量对大学，特别是技术大学的经济作用的影响，从而侧重于工业-大学相互作用的性质。这种动态关系的影响可以在芬兰商业发展和创业的许多方面找到。虽然许多学者已经写了关于研究型大学在高科技产业集聚增长中的重要性，以及大学和工业组织之间作为经济发展贡献者的密切联系，但关于这一过程的动态，还有很多有待了解的地方。本研究要解决的主要问题是，大学如何适应影响它们的外部力量的机会，大学的使命如何随着社会条件的变化而变化，以刺激区域增长，以及利用什么样的组织结构和流程来帮助技术转让和企业孵化。数据的收集和分析将与赫尔辛基的小组一起完成，来自美国小组的几名初级研究员将参与国际合作。
