14 STRATEGIE NL v EU ACAD HEIs Implementation and motivation strategies are well developed Documented strategies need more development in NL Documented (Paper) strategies A top-level management committed to University-Business cooperation, A documented mission / vision embracing University-Business cooperation, A strategy for University-Business cooperation, The internal promotion of UBC The external promotion of UBC Netherlands ACAD HBO 5.8 Uni 6.5 HEI HBO 6.6 Uni 6.9 Europe ACAD HBO 5.5 Uni 5.3 HEI HBO 6.8 Uni 6.8 Implementation and motivation strategies Netherlands Europe The dedication of resources (inc. funding) to support University-Business cooperation, The provision of incentives for academics to encourage University-Business cooperation, ACAD HEI HBO Uni HBO The inclusion of cooperation with business as part of the assessment of work performance for academics. Uni 5.7 ACAD HBO 4.2 Uni 3.9 HEI HBO 5.4 Uni 5.4 Perceived benefits EU Perceptions of high benefits & incentives are motivators of UBC 1 Students 2 Business 3 HEI 4 Academics Academics recognise benefits for different stakeholders however to a lower extent the personal benefits they receive from UBC. 1 Students 2 Business 3 HEI 4 Society HEIs rated the highest benefits for students, followed by business then the ability of UBC to contribute to the mission of the HEI in third place with the lowest benefits perceived for society. Finding: The higher the perceived personal benefits of UBC, the higher the extent of UBC carried out 28 14

15 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS 1. Valorisation requies a broader understanding of UBC 2. There are 10 types of UBC (more than just patents, licenses and spin-outs) 3. There are 3 stakeholder levels that benefit from UBC 4. UBC is not well developed in EU or NL 5. Culture difference, funding and bureaucracy (academics) biggest academic barriers 6. Relartionships drive UBC in NL from the academic AND HEI perspective 7. Documented strategies need more development in NL 8. Perceptions of high personal benefits & incentives are motivators of UBC CONTACT Peter van der Sijde p.c.vander.sijde@vu.nl Todd Davey davey@apprimo.com 15
