Research collaboration is regarded as core source to lead various innovations in all countries. This paper compares and analyzes the performance of Industry-University-Government Research Institutes (GRI) collaboration based on the four types of research collaborations; GRI-GRI, Industry-GRI, University-GRI and Industry-University-GRI. So this paper will show which collaboration type has the best work on each R&D step. We use four R&D steps; research, development, commercialization and overall. We also evaluate the performance of research collaboration of GRIs based on the collaboration types. In order to evaluate the performance of research collaboration, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is employed for measuring the efficiency of GRIs in this paper. DEA is a non-parametric approach to measuring the relative efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and outputs. The empirical results represent that the performance of collaboration with industry is generally superior to other collaboration types. These findings from this paper are expected to provide basic information for national collaboration strategy making.

According to the influence of the LINC project initiated by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology in 2011, the number of 'University-Industry Collaboration Faculty' has been sharply increased for the last five years. It is viewed that university-industry collaboration faculty have played a prime role for promoting the university-industry collaboration. However, there is a potential threat that about 70 per cents of total expense needed for maintaining the university-industry collaboration faculty system are dependent upon finances of the LINC project. There is a concern that the university-industry collaboration faculty system will be disappeared, if a university or college fails to be selected in the LINC project or the government decides to suspend the LINC project. In order to grasp the realities and policy alternatives on the university-industry collaboration faculty system, this paper conducts a literature survey, a questionnaire survey, the in-depth interviews with experts and the persons concerned. Based on the results of the survey, we suggest policy implications in terms of legal, financial and structural dimensions.

This paper aims to illuminate the role of serial context among industry, academia and government, taking much care of the role of society and community in the sustainable regional planning and practice. This paper is composed of five chapters, each of them dealing with different aspects. In In chapter 1, we give the little long introduction of the time of mutation and significance of locus that explains the conceptual background and framework of this paper. In chapter 2, we elaborate on the mutation and metamorphosis of structural, social, and natural changes in the world and especially Japan. In chapter 3 and chapter 4, the main chapters of this paper, we describe the evolution of academic town in megalopolis, the revitalization of technopolis, and the creative local culture of the World Heritage for the regional renaissance in Japan. In chaper 5, we conclude this paper. As for this illumination, we should pay more due regards to the locus, orbit and iconography of region to develop better hosting environment and habitat for global innovation of industry-academia-government collaboration's serial contexts through sustainable tourism and tourism sustainability. Especially, at the time of natural and social mutation, we could not look over the heavy and sudden natural unexpected changes, the deep structural social and community changes in Japan, and war and terrorism in Asia on the global scene for sustainable rejuvenation.

Purpose: This study attempted to identify determinants affecting research collaboration and R&D distribution activities, especially regarding facility and equipment leasing of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in South Korea. The objective of this study was to find the most significant firm characteristics that affect firms participating in an R&D collaboration and distribution program and investing in R&D in terms of leasing payment for equipment. Research design, data, and methodology: This study analyzes which SMEs' characteristics influence external research cooperation activities by examining the SMEs that received government support for equipment leasing using multiple regression analysis and residual plots. The survey combined two databases: 1) a fact-finding survey of participating firms by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, and 2) leasing information by the Korea Association of University, Research Institute and Industry. Results: The study found that firm size positively impacts R&D investment, R&D collaboration and distribution. Conclusions: The study provided evidence to policymakers and government officials that firms with more employees will more likely participate in government support programs. The study results also prove that government officials believe firm location does not impact R&D investment, R&D collaboration and distribution.

This paper investigated the hypotheses about how the degree of IT mentoring program satisfaction can be affected by mentors' competence, college students' participation, and professors' interests in the field of information technology. First, empirical results showed that IT mentoring program satisfaction could be improved when mentors' competence and authenticity exposed to college students. Second, another finding is that IT Mentoring Program satisfaction is significantly positive in the field of both SW and HW. Finally, the role of IT mentor is very essential to university-industry collaboration irregardless of government support. However, college students' participation and professors' interests was low when they didn't get government support.

In the face of globalization and other recent developments, flagship universities in developing countries must deal with significant challenges to come up with new strategies to serve their respective countries better. They have to confront the issue of international university ranking and its implication on social relevance. They have to remain at the forefront of research as research universities and must lead in promoting internationalization of higher education. More importantly, flagship universities must engage actively in industry-academe-government collaboration as a necessary approach towards strengthening their nations’ innovation systems. This paper is at best conceptual and takes a cursory look at the role of flagship universities in developing countries, citing the case of the University of the Philippines and its strategy towards fulfilling its role as the country’s only national university.
