“…University-industry relationships typically involve collaborative research, contract research, educational collaboration, personnel mobility, or contracting (D'Este & Patel, 2007;Perkmann et al, 2013). Whereas the importance of the transfer of academic knowledge into the industrial domain has been highlighted in previous research (e.g., Ankrah & Al-Tabbaa, 2015;Perkmann et al, 2013), educational collaboration taking place as a part of university-industry research collaborations is an almost neglected topic. This is surprising, because education and the creation of knowledge is a primary goal of universities, and involvement in academic educational activities is a source of great potential in terms of improving the competences of firms seeking new skills and competences (Santoro & Chakrabarti, 1999) or wishing to develop their own internal capabilities.…”

“…Comme on peut le constater, le principe d'homophilie (ou encore les proximités) a un impact managérial significatif puisqu'il vient, au moins en partie, conditionner l'accès des PME aux ressources et capacités externes dont elles ont besoin dans le cadre de leurs projets d'innovation (Grossetti et Bès, 2001). (Ankrah et AL-Tabbaa, 2015 ;Perkmann et al, 2013 ;Bijker, Hughes et Pinch, 2012). Toutefois, le principe d'homophilie et l'analyse des réseaux montrent également qu'il ne s'agit pas là d'une panacée.…”

La recherche sur l’innovation dans les PME s’est beaucoup intéressée à la place et au rôle des réseaux. Dans ces travaux, tout se passe comme si toutes les relations étaient possibles et également probables. Or, rien n’est plus inexact : toutes les relations n’ont pas la même probabilité d’exister et les réseaux sont eux aussi structurés et hiérarchisés. En analyse de réseaux, cette observation classique renvoie au principe d’homophilie ; principe selon lequel, dans les réseaux, les personnes ou les organisations qui sont en relation sont semblables parce qu’elles ont tendance à partager un ensemble de caractéristiques sociales et organisationnelles. À partir d’une étude exploratoire centrée sur des entretiens réalisés dans des entreprises oeuvrant dans l’industrie des technologies propres, nous verrons comment le principe d’homophilie s’avère nécessaire à la compréhension, d’une part, de l’existence même des relations observées dans les activités d’innovation des PME et, d’autre part, de leur capacité à donner accès aux ressources, dont ont besoin ces dernières dans leurs projets.Innovation studies in SMEs has been interested for long time by the place and role of networks. In these studies, everything happens as if all the relations were possible and also likely. Yet, nothing is more inaccurate : all the relations do not have the same probability to exist and networks are also structured and hierarchical. In networks analysis, this classic observation sends back to the principle of homophily ; principle according to which people or organizations tend to form connections with others who are similar to them in social or organizational characteristics. From an exploratory research based on interviews with entrepreneurs and managers of firms working in the industry of clean technologies, we will see how the principle of homophily turns out to be necessary in the understanding of, on one hand, the existence of the relations observed in the innovation’s activities of SMEs, and on the other, their capacity to give access to the resources which the SMEs need in their innovation’s projects.Investigación sobre la innovación en las PyME (Pequenas y medianas empresas) está interesada en el lugar y el papel de las redes. En estas obras, todo sucede como si las relaciones fueran igualmente probables y posibles. Sin embargo, nada es más correcta : todas las relaciones no tienen la misma posibilidad de existir redes también estructuradas y priorizadas. En el análisis de redes, esta observación clásica se refiere a la venta de homophilia. El principio por el que, en las redes, las personas u organizaciones que están relacionados con son similares porque suelen compartir un conjunto de características sociales y organizativos.

“…This relationship is better explained by expectations of both sides. With reference to Odabaşı et al [2] For the university these expectations are: 4. Creating a persistent knowledge platform and saving it.…”

“…According to Ankrah and AL-Tabbaa [4] [5] put emphasis on the issue of formalizations importance; increasing formalization and monitoring of the relationship in a UIC could lead to conflict and distrust among parties. For universities accessing the researching fund is the most dominating motive [4]. For this reason universities are likely to be in a vulnerable position because they have less power and control over the agreement.…”

“…This paper discusses a UIC between 12 undergraduate students and a small scale furniture firm as a case study. Partners: KYS Chairs (Kenan Yeni Sandalyeleri) [4] is a well-known furniture factory in Eskişehir which is in production field since 1965. KYS mostly deals with laminated wood chairs and furniture and also produces order based one off productions in diverse types.…”

Furniture design in interior design courses at Universities are often held in design studios or in theoretical classes. In theoretical classes the practical output of furniture production is ignored and it lacks of an important input from production. This situation is compensated by applied classes in wood workshops which are established with a limited variety of production techniques. As most of the industrial products furniture is made out of many components and materials. These are produced in industrial establishments by installation of required production techniques. Instead of producing a marketable product, in interior design courses the aim is to have an experience of furniture production due to that they do not have all possible production techniques installed in workshops.In this paper, a joint project between academia, which is more close to design and industry, which is more close to production is discussed with a focus on benefits of this collaboration for both sides. Paper comprises an evaluation of a one term experience of interior design students in collaboration with laminated wood furniture factory.
