Welcome to the Model Partnerships Report!
This web-based Model Partnerships Report is a collection of profiles of talent/education and R&D partnerships between university, industry, and government partners in the life sciences, financial services, and clean energy sectors, with a special chapter devoted specifically to university partnerships. Launched at the U.S.-China-India Innovation Partnerships Conference, many of the featured partnerships are collaborations between institutions in Massachusetts and Asia, but examples of other U.S. and global partnerships are included.
The Report also contains the new Massachusetts Partnerships Directory with a focus on China, India, and Singapore. Currently available as a draft, the Directory seeks to catalog major institution-level talent and R&D partnerships that Massachusetts higher education institutions have with academic partners in those three nations. The second chapter briefly summarizes several additional education/talent and R&D programs in Massachusetts that could serve as models for other initiatives. The Directory’s final chapter is an intermediary directory with listings for government, quasi-government, and industry association resources available to play a vital role in connecting global partners with Massachusetts university, industry, and government assets.
The Report and Directory are on-going projects and new profiles and entries will be added on a continuing basis. If you are involved in a collaboration that you would like to see featured in the Model Partnerships Report, please contact B.J. Richards at bjrichards@massinsight.com.
