“…This is reasonable since these academics are also entrepreneurs at the same time and consecutively practically business oriented. This finding is consistent with authors that found a positive relationship between industry-funding and applied research (Gulbrandsen & Smeby, 2005;Poyago-Theotoky et al, 2002;Rahm, 1994;Van Looy et al, 2004). Our results also reveal that academic entrepreneurs after they establish their spin-off companies employ more funds for applied research then before which coincides with more applied research conducted after the spin-off creation.…”

“…[140] These type of research are frequently happens at the other countries, [141,142] but low numbers in this country, Malaysia. In industries, research and development are frequently happens in the inside, but there are not many of them convert the research into a publication.…”

Aim: This study is to understand and analyze the publication productivity as one of the important scientometric indicators of HEI's performance in Malaysia for duration time of 20 years. Method: This study conducted the scientometric analysis of the research productivity performance of Malaysia's researchers from June 1995 to June 2015 using Scopus database. All type' field in the search box where chosen and the chosen keyword is 'Malaysia'. All related papers are extracted, retrieved and compiled into the personal database in Microsoft Excel. Pre-processing task such as data cleaning were done and with total of 290 093 publications records was identified. These publications records included all type of documents such as articles, conference, review paper, book chapter and books. Result: The remarkably numbers of publication growth from 1995 to 2015. There are huge development of research happens in these 20 years in Malaysia with only 1,610 publication in 1995 increased to 180,797 publication in 2015. Subject area of pure science dominated the percentage of publication such as engineering with 15% from total and the small percentage with total of 5% comes from pure science as well which are physic and astronomy. Conclusion: The increase in publication productivity is a sign of good R&D that is actively happened in this country. This has a positive impact towards Malaysia as well as the related institutions in order to introduce and stamp their name to the world. Therefore, the numbers of collaboration with others countries especially with European countries and America is worth to emphasize. Nonetheless, we understand that there are numbers of factors that associated in producing the publication that can be barriers to the authors such as personal factors, environment factors and behavioral factors.

“…Therefore, projects of this nature tend to involve applied research instead of fundamental research, as argued by Poyago-Theotoky et al (2002). The considerable financial resources which accompany licensing also strengthen the incentive to focus on applied research.…”

“…In particular, universities interact with DBFs through joint research projects in which knowledge is mutually exchanged. Mixed teams of university and LDF researchers working on a joint research project are unlikely to be observed in reality (Poyago-Theotoky et al, 2002). Therefore, we designed the interaction between universities and LDFs in a twofold way as licensing or sponsoring relations.…”

Abstract:In the last two decades, university-industry relationships have played an outstanding role in shaping innovation activities in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. Nevertheless, there still is an intensive and open debate concerning their short and long term effects on the research system in life sciences. This work introduces a new way to analyse university-industry relationships (UIRs) which makes use of an agent-based simulation model. We analyse knowledge interactions among heterogeneous actors and we show that: 1) universities tend to shift from a basic to an applied research orientation as a consequence of relationships with industry; 2) universities' innovative capabilities benefit from industry financial resources but not so much from cognitive resources of the companies; 3) biotech companies' innovative capabilities largely benefit from knowledge interaction with universities; 4) adequate policies in terms of public basic research funding can counteract the negative effects of UIRs on university research orientation.Keywords: university-industry relationships; UIRs; knowledge dynamics; agent-based modelling; ABM; university patenting; technology transfer; biotech; biotechnology; pharmaceuticals; basic research funding policies.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Triulzi, G., Pyka, A. and Scholz, R.
