The aim of the project is to investigate the configurations of social
factors that predict the success of collaborative projects between
academia and industry in the context of sustainable (water)
development. This goal will be achieved in stages:
• Identifying the key social factors that predict the success of
university-industry collaboration using literature and explorative
data;
• Development of the theoretical framework based on the social
system concept;
• Empirical examination of various equifinal combinations of
factors or conditions that contribute to the success of UIC;
• Providing practical recommendations for academic institutions,
industry leaders, and policymakers on how to build collaborations
for maximum effectiveness
