Abstract

Universities and other higher education institutions (HEIs) are an important resource network for high technology firms. In order to develop stronger links with industry HEIs have established Science Parks. To ascertain ‘added-value’ of a Science Park location in the UK the formal and informal links developed with local HEIs by independent Science Park firms are compared with the links made by a comparable group of independent high technology firms not located on a Park. Analysis of the combined sample of on and off-Park firms revealed having a link with a local HEI in 1986 was associated with survival over the 1986–1992 period. However, on the downside, empirical evidence collected in 1992/93 from firms in a follow-on sample (originally interviewed in 1986) as well as a ‘new sample’ study (independent firms that had located on a Science Park between 1986 and 1992) both revealed that the vast majority of links developed with local HEIs are generally informal ones. The policy implications of the research findings are discussed.

高等教育机构与高科技公司之间的联系
大学和其他高等教育机构是高科技企业重要的资源网络。为了加强与业界的联系,高等教育院校设立了科学园。为了确定英国科技园位置的“附加价值”,将独立科技园公司与当地高等教育机构建立的正式和非正式联系与位于园区以外的独立高科技公司的类似联系进行比较。对公园内外公司的综合样本分析显示,1986年与当地HEI有联系与1986 - 1992年期间的生存有关。然而,不利的一面是,1992/93年从后续样本(最初于1986年采访)中的公司收集的经验证据以及“新样本”研究(1986年至1992年期间位于科学园的独立公司)都显示,绝大多数与当地高等教育机构建立的联系通常是非正式的。讨论了研究结果的政策含义。

期刊介绍: Omega reports on developments in management, including the latest research results and applications. Original contributions and review articles describe the state of the art in specific fields or functions of management, while there are shorter critical assessments of particular management techniques. Other features of the journal are the "Memoranda" section for short communications and "Feedback", a correspondence column. Omega is both stimulating reading and an important source for practising managers, specialists in management services, operational research workers and management scientists, management consultants, academics, students and research personnel throughout the world. The material published is of high quality and relevance, written in a manner which makes it accessible to all of this wide-ranging readership. Preference will be given to papers with implications to the practice of management. Submissions of purely theoretical papers are discouraged. The review of material for publication in the journal reflects this aim.
