摘要: This paper addresses interorganisational collaboration by science-based firms active in the Dutch life sciences. More specifically, we focus on two aspects (1) Processes of finding partners; and (2) Resource-based inducements opportunities guiding these processes. Overall, there appears to be an evolution from untargeted targeted search as become more established within technological field. Unestablished largely depend accepting invitations for offered them partners while are able successfully initiate partnerships themselves. Considering than one potential partner, e.g. actual partner selection, does not occur regularly, especially case initiated instead focal organisation. The use a standardised list preconditions considered selection could relevant here. © Imperial College Press 2010.
