The Rolls-Royce of Cooperation Models

Samuel R. Schubert ()

A chapter in Knowledge Loves Company, 2009, pp 155-184 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract “I think the one thing that you can learn from the Rolls-Royce UTC model is that it’s about the time that the company is putting in. Giving us a contract and then turning up every three months and saying: Where’s my stuff? just isn’t going to work. It’s all about keeping people in the university as part of the team, keeping some involvement, and, actually it sounds strange, but growing a lot of loyalty to that company. And that doesn’t come easily. When it is there, that is when researchers will go the extra mile.”
