| Abstract: | The article offers some perspectives on how to improve the probability of success for a specific kind of alliance: research collaborations between small and large companies. Differing from traditional contract research, where a third-party company or university is paid to conduct research and furnish the results and intellectual property rights to the payer, a true collaboration is a partnership in which both companies pool their resources and technology in a cooperative manner in order to achieve certain strategic objectives of both companies. While the author addresses the concerns of the large company, he writes from the perspective of a small company, Symyx Technologies, Inc. based in Santa Clara, California. |
