Case studies and best practices in industry-academia collaboration#
The creation of this subchapter was motivated by a need to address the realities of navigating the complex relationship between Open Science and Industry, particularly in cases where research is partly or fully funded by industry. A balance must be struck between producing research that meets the priorities of the sponsoring organisation and producing research that is open, shareable, and beneficial to the community.
Researchers and practitioners championing Open Science could benefit from case studies and lessons learnt from others who have successfully and/or unsuccessfully navigated this aspect of Academic-Industry collaborations.
This subchapter is a continuously growing resource library of case studies in academic-industry collaboration, as well as a collection of existing resources on academic-industry best practices.
Who this subchapter is for#
This subchapter could be especially useful for anyone who is conducting or has conducted research in the context of academic-industry collaboration. This could include:
Academics who have an opportunity to work with an industrial partner and are looking for guidance on how to best navigate the relationship to ensure a productive and open collaboration.
Industrial practitioners who have an opportunity to work with an academic partner and are looking for guidance on how to best navigate the relationship to ensure a productive and open collaboration.
You have experience in academic-industry collaboration and wish to share your experiences with the Turing Way community so they can benefit in the future.
Subchapter structure#
This subchapter is divided in two sections:
A library of case studies on academic-industry collaboration, showcasing best practices and lessons learnt for each particular case study.
A library of existing resources on the web that address best practices in academic-industry collaboration
Engaging with this subchapter#
You are encouraged to read through the resources in this subchapter and use them as you need for your personal purposes.
You can also contribute to the subchapter by submitting a case study (following The Turing Way’s contribution guidelines), or by suggesting new resources that could be added to the Resources section.
