Best? New practice industry-university cooperation Chemelot InSciTe www.chemelot-inscite.com
Aanleiding / Externe ontwikkelingen Wetenschappelijke competitie neemt toe; universiteit moet zich op sterktes profileren en sterktes moeten voldoende massa hebben Verschuiving van financieringsmogelijkheden en geldstromen van centrale overheid naar andere partijen (EU, regios, provincies, bedrijven) Meer nadruk op excellentie en impact als voorwaarden voor het verwerven van 2 e en 3 e geldstroom Wetenschappelijke vernieuwing ligt in interdisciplinariteit: vraagt om universiteitsbrede keuzes en samenwerking met strategische partners Bedrijven zijn partner van de universiteit: vraagt om afstemming van onderzoeks- en valorisatie-agenda s op basis van competenties
