The State Science and Technology Institute (SSTI) has held a series of conferences with the goal of strengthening the partnership among higher education and state, regional and local technology-based economic development efforts. This year, the seventh annual conference will be held in Seattle Washington in October 2003. The conference will involve federal, state, academic and local policy makers and practitioners from across the country who are associated with S&T policy development, implementation and evaluation. Many state leaders are recognizing the important role of strong universities in research, innovation and workforce development as they face the challenges of current state fiscal constraints. As a result of these challenges, more innovative partnerships must be fostered among academic and research institutions, economic development practitioners and private sector businesses. This conference provides an excellent venue to forge stronger government-university-industry partnerships and discuss new strategies for encouraging tech-based economic development and technology commercialization. As part of the conference, a special "university track" will stimulate discussions about state investments in universities and commercialization of university research. The goals of this portion of the conference are to 1) increase recognition and support for the important roles universities play in building technology-based economies; 2) attract more university leadership and research administrators to participate and foster stronger working relationships with their state, local and regional economic development partners; 3) provide a forum for universities to discuss shared challenges and issues in increasing commercialization of university technology, building the research enterprise, encouraging faculty entrepreneurship and preparing tomorrow's leaders and workers; and 4) promote interstate and intrastate cooperation toward common goals for research and economic development.

国家科学技术研究所（SSTI）举行了一系列会议，目的是加强高等教育与国家、地区和地方以技术为基础的经济发展努力之间的伙伴关系。 今年，第七届年会将于2003年10月在西雅图华盛顿举行。 这次会议将有来自全国各地与科技政策的制定、执行和评估有关的联邦、州、学术界和地方决策者和实践者参加。 许多州领导人认识到，在面临当前州财政限制的挑战时，强大的大学在研究、创新和劳动力发展方面发挥着重要作用。 由于这些挑战，必须在学术和研究机构、经济发展工作者和私营部门企业之间建立更具创新性的伙伴关系。 本次会议提供了一个很好的场所，以建立更强大的政府-大学-产业伙伴关系，并讨论新的战略，鼓励以技术为基础的经济发展和技术商业化。 作为会议的一部分，一个特殊的“大学轨道”将激发关于国家对大学的投资和大学研究商业化的讨论。 会议这一部分的目标是：1）提高对大学在建设技术型经济中发挥的重要作用的认识和支持; 2）吸引更多的大学领导和研究管理人员参与，并与他们的州，地方和区域经济发展伙伴建立更强有力的工作关系; 3）为大学提供一个论坛，讨论在提高大学技术商业化、建立研究企业、鼓励教师创业和培养未来领导者和工作者方面的共同挑战和问题;（4）促进州际和州内的合作，以实现研究和经济发展的共同目标。
