Public-private interaction and its contribution to knowledge diffusion in Argentina
Journal Title: Trilogía Ciencia Tecnología Sociedad - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 18
Abstract
This work explores the dynamics of public-private interaction for knowledge generation and diffusion among R&D laboratories and companies in Argentina. Based on a case study method, we qualitatively analyzed four public-private consortiums in the field of agricultural biotechnology. The study allowed us to identify several factors that favor good partnership performance. Some of them promote relationships between researchers and stakeholders in the industry; there are also channels and mechanisms that facilitate the processes under study, and factors that enable participants to get results and positive return of investments. We also observed the renewed participation of certain employers and the remarkable role of human resource with knowledge translation capabilities.
