This project addresses the issue of how to enhance the interactions between academia and industries in Korea. We will examine the social and historical factors underlying the university-industry linkage as well as the organizational strategies for the R&D networking. The obj ective of the project is to assist better understanding of the current status of university-industry linkages and suggest relevant policy recommendations. Under this proj ect we organized the workshop on university-industry collaboration/networking in Korea. The workshop was held on November 1 at the Asia/Pacific Research Center at Stanford University. Four experts on this issue presented their papers to address the current situation of various aspects of the university-industry networking in Korea. Five discussants from Stanford University responded to these four presentations, especially with a focus on policy suggestions to improve the current state of university-industry networking. The final report consists of the outcomes of the workshop: four papers presented in the workshop and response comments by five discussion panels. The papers are: "Infrastructure of Research and Development and Human Resource in Korea" (Jong-Chun Woo, Seoul National University), "A Study on R&D Human Resources Mobility between Research Institute and Industry, Universities in Korea: the Macro view and Micro Analysis" (Jae-Gu Kim et al., Myongj i University), "Technology Transfers through University-Industry Cooperation: An Overview of Korean Experience" (Kiseok Lee, Kyung Hee University), and "Industry and University Linkage for Development through Technical Human Resource Development in Korea" (Ji Soo Kim, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology). The response comments are made by scholars and practitioners in Silicon Valley: Nathan Rosenberg (Department of Economics, Stanford University), Catherine Ku (Director, Office of Technology Licensing, Stanford University), Rafiq Dossani (Asia/Pacific Research Center, Stanford University), Mariko Yoshihara Yang (Asia/Pacific Research Center, Stanford University), and Michael Paek (Korean American Attorney).
