The voice unheard : the perspective of Southeast Wisconsin high tech industry on government and university r&d technology programs / by Jim Lombardi. by Lombardi, Jim. Subjects Strategic alliances (Business)   High technology and education -- Wisconsin   Partnership   MSEM Thesis. Description:  xii, 120 leaves : ill. ; 29 cm. Contents:  Advisor: Dr. Owe Petersen. Committee members: Dr. Bruce Thompson, Gene Wright. Introduction -- High technology industry -- Government and university technology programs -- Research design -- Results and interpretations -- Findings and recommendations -- Appendixes: A: Material sources -- B: Questionnaire and related material -- C: Survey results. Results from this study show less than 10% of Southeast Wisconsin high tech companies felt that federal and state government funds was important for them to form R&D alliances with universities. Furthermore, only 52% of companies have ever worked with a university and less than 20% actively pursue university alliances. Generally, companies stated the main impediment to forming a university alliance was that they believed such alliances were too time consuming. Study recommendations are: (1) increase awareness to all sizes of high tech companies regarding available government R&D funding resources in order for government funds to effectively serve as a catalyst; (2) Southeast Wisconsin universities should improve their technical relevance and credibility so that more high tech companies become interested in their offerings; and (3) more importantly, universities should offer to solve industry’s concurrent needs instead of attempting to promote their own expertise. The subjects were 57 top executives and 31 managers and engineers from Southeast Wisconsin high tech companies employing more than two employees. Standard Industrial Classification codes used by the Department of Commerce and the Bureau of Labor Statistics define the organizational format of the study.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .L66 1996 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
