has been cast back to those university groups operating at the absolute forefront of science. Many other university researchers will see an increase in the number of requests to set out

what they are able to do for the economy and the society of the future. As a follow-up to the above, there is the demand for management of the knowledge infrastructure.

The increasing trend for universities being expected to account for themselves is only one manifestation of an expansive phenomenon that is emerging in the international dimension:

Table 1 sets out the main differences between Mode 1 and Mode 2. This gives rise to a dilemma for universities and public research organisations 42.

Universities, because the demand for more specific orientation towards the problem in question calls for a multidisciplinary approach,

As a result, global buyers instead of universities are gatekeepers of knowledge. This enhances the likely impact of global value chains on the level of innovation.

but all universities increasingly pay attention to entrepreneurship and community services. At ISI, students can choose between more artistic and more commercial art studies.

But their role in innovation interactions is limited to teaching. There is no joint design development or innovation platform.

They require long-term investment in human capital often around a centre of technological excellence, such as a university

or the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, which spawned both CDT and Plastic Logic.

First, successful innovation depends to some extent on excellence in education and strong and active links between knowledge generation, knowledge exchange and knowledge exploitation (i e. between universities and firms.

CDT was established in 1992 following the discovery that Light Emitting Diodes (LEDS) could be made from polymers as opposed to traditional semiconductors by researchers at the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge.

The case study also highlights the university's lack of capability at that time to respond to the discovery in any meaningful way.

when it became clear that the university was unable to licence the technology itself. CDT also illustrates the fact that the time frame for development

Novaled's resulted from collaboration between the Technical University of Dresden's Institute for Applied Photophysics (IAPP) and the Fraunhofer 13 Startup Intelligence

centres of excellence within universities MIT Media Lab in this case can provide focused and fertile sources of start-ups.

Involvement of universities in the seeding process, both for new technological innovation and for driving new technology take-up, is a major factor.

This is shown in the use of university staff and even students to introduce robotics through business cases and technical integration services, at reduced costs to new users.

as there are several European examples in our case studies. For instance, the Institute for Applied Photophysics at the Technical University of Dresden with the Fraunhofer Institute founded Novaled in Germany,

and the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge spun out both Plastic Logic and CDT. 45 So how do the EU

The research performance of Europe's universities seems to lag behind that of their US counterparts, particularly in the top 50 universities in the Academic ranking of world universities (ARWU), colloquially known as the‘Shanghai ranking'(Aghion et al, 2005;

a European‘top'university tends to be among the best 25%in the world in at least one discipline,

although the number of disciplines in which it is world leader is on average substantially lower than that calculated for a top US university (Moed, 2006).

And this calls for excellence in education and strong and active links between knowledge generation and knowledge exploitation (i e. between universities and firms.

The company was spun off in 2001 from the Technical University of Dresden's Institute for Applied Photophysics (IAPP) and the Fraunhofer Institute (Fhg) for Photonic Microsystems (IPMS), both of Dresden, Germany, by four key people.

as well as being spun off from a technical university and a state-aided research institute. The key project has been the Rollex project:

that a bridge between university and industry is critical for successful product commercialization. One example of such a bridge is the Fraunhofer IPMS.

The IPMS in Dresden enables the IAPP of the Technical University of Dresden to scale up its technology in a well-controlled environment (NSF WTEC 2010.

When Novaled started as a spin-off from Fraunhofer and Technical University of Dresden in 2001 with just 4 people,

With no university degree no university backing and very little funding, 93 over a period of 25 years Greenhill and a small team developed the world's most advanced robotic hand.

The original aim of the Shadow Project was to build a genuinely useful general-purpose robot, at a price which people,

Shadow received its first order for the Dextrous Hand in 2004, curiously from the University of Bielefeld in Germany.

Carnegie mellon University also bought one in 2005 for their research work, 94 but the main customer was again NASA who placed an order in 2005 in connection with their Robonaut project.

Nevertheless, it has outlasted all the apparently more credible government-funded and university robot-building projects from the late 80s and early 90s."

Further development took place in this international effort involving EU companies, universities, and research institutes. In the Realsim project, DLR developed a free Modelica multibody library (the download is available at http://www. Modelica. org/library

Note also that KUKA has sponsored university research in the USA. The KUKA Chair of Robotics at the Georgia Institute of technology held by Professor Henrik Christensen,

RUR works with leading universities and other technology providers to gather the latest and most relevant technology for each application it sees its advantage as being able to deploy the very latest in robotics technology.

Some form of support for those customers taking robotics technology for the first time would allay the fears they often see in small companies over investments in robotics. UK universities are not fully supportive they do not seem to be able to partner well with industry.

with a remit to integrate resources for knowledge, skills, infrastructure and innovation expertise, among universities, science parks, incubators,

Thus Robotdalen draws heavily on local universities to provide students who can work with SMES to introduce robots, guided by a team of experienced mentors.

as well as the local universities of Örebro and Mälardalen. Such developments are generating international interest in Robotdalen

underpinned with regional university support and helping start-up suppliers and robot users. Robotdalen's programme has succeeded in mobilizing interested parties across the entire region.

Prevas, as well as the universities of Mäladalen and Örebro. More than 100 pilot studies of SMES have been conducted to strengthen the competitiveness of the local SMES by robotization of their production processes.

Going further it is supporting human capital growth through university education. Sweden's first university course in robotics is held now here.

Robotdalen has cooperated with local universities to set up a Master of Engineering in Robotics course, at Mälardalen University while at Örebro University a new postgraduate school RAP (Intelligent Systems for Robotics

Automation and Process Control) has been created. One example product is the Giraff teleconferencing robot for the elderly and disabled the company moved to Robotdalen from Silicon valley.

A key lesson from the analysis of the three subsectors is the critical importance of higher education, particularly elite university research,
