University-Business Cooperation: Relations between HEIs and companies

The relationship between universities and companies is an important topic of debate in the contemporary context. The global changes brought about by a process of globalisation, the liberalisation of trade barriers and neoliberalism have led business sectors to seek new forms of management, operationalisation and constant initiatives for development and innovation. To this end, the aim of this research was to understand the types of relationships between HEIs and companies through their cooperation and relationship processes.
