Driving Force Model and Case Analysis of Transnational Industry-University-Research Cooperation
Using Country as a unit of analysis,a model illustrating four types of driving force is proposed,including political force,market force,research force and social force,14 factors such as geopolitical factor,market factor as well as R&D investment are also included.China-US Clean Energy Research Center(CERC)is studied as case to further elaborate and verify the model.Case study shows that enough positive driving force is critical for the cooperation,while cooperation is difficult to realize when the driving force is insufficient.At last,several suggestions are put forwarded,such as tackling with global challenges,promoting institutional openness,developing asymmetric advantages,strengthening people to people exchange ties,and improving cohesion between government and market.
