S2BMRC launches survey on cooperation between higher education institutions and public and private organisations in Europe.



September 28, 2016

Due to its potential for positive impact on business innovation and skills as well as university engagement and student employability, the European Commission has commissioned the Science-to-Business Marketing Research Centre to conduct a wide-ranging study on cooperation between higher education institutions and public and private organisations in Europe.

On September 28, the Science-to-Business Marketing Research Centre successfully launched the comprehensive survey.
 
So, whether you are a business or university and have cooperated with either or not, we request your participation to ensure its success and to be able to develop policy to encourage and support collaboration.  The survey is set to be the most comprehensive ever undertaken in Europe on this topic, involving over 3,500 universities and 1,000 businesses.

To participate: complete the survey in the European language of your choice: http://www.survey.ub-cooperation.eu/

The survey itself will take about 10 minutes to complete and all responses will remain anonymous. We kindly request that you complete the survey before 11/11/2016

As a measure of thanks, on completion of the survey, you can choose to receive a Cooperation Readiness Assessment for your organisation, which provides insight to assist your future collaboration with universities. 
 
The European Commission and the Science-to-Business Marketing Research Centre thank you sincerely in advance for your most appreciated support.
