Human Sciences Research Council | 2007 | ISBN: 0796921326 | 246 pages | PDF | 1,1 MB

Through detailed case studies this monograph explores how the knowledge network—an integral part of the knowledge society—is being created in three high-technology fields: biotechnology, information and communication technology (ICT), and new materials development. The case studies show the intersection of interests and expertise, highlighting some of the possibilities and constraints of the intellectual-capital model and making suggestions on the approaches industry can adopt in the future. As the third volume in the Working Partnerships series, this book continues the detailed analysis of the response of South Africa's higher-education institutions to the challenge of seeding a national system of innovation by way of research partnerships with industry.
