| Tiivistelmä: | The importance of collaboration for commercial biotechnology research is considered in this article. Biotechnology is the most research-intensive economic activity in existence today. Inter-company collaboration is a major support of research, since most biotech companies are unable to secure all the research resources they need on their own. The ecology of biotech collaboration and its importance is considered firstly, along with the various collaborative modes and their causes. A second part then addresses the question of whether inter-company collaboration actually strengthens research intensity. Two main types of collaborative arrangements, strategic research alliances and subcontracting, are considered. |
