Enhancing U.S. Science and Innovation with Novel Cross-Sector Partnerships: A Workshop

Completed

The Government-University-Industry Research Roundtable will convene a day-long workshop for its membership and invited guests to discuss novel public-private-academic partnerships across the research enterprise. During the nearly four decades of the Roundtable’s existence, the nature of cross-sector partnership has evolved, but its importance to the workings of the U.S. innovation ecosystem has remained consistent. As we look to the next era of scientific and technical research what kinds of multi-sector partnerships will be needed to sustain the research enterprise? Where are novel approaches to cross-sector partnerships currently happening across critical economic sectors?

Description

A planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will organize a workshop to discuss novel public-private-academic partnerships across the research enterprise. The workshop will consider current and proposed multi-sector partnerships that enhance science and technology innovation, national security, and national prosperity, and will explore the motives, responsibilities, concerns, and objectives that bring institutions to the table to pursue and sustain partnership. Collaborations between government, universities, and industry with non-profit organizations, philanthropic foundations, and venture capital partners will also be discussed. A rapporteur-authored proceedings-in brief will be published summarizing the workshop.
