This chapter explains how the governance structure of university–industry collaboration programs evolves while transitioning from the strategic planning phase to the execution and delivery phase. A transitional phase is introduced between the two official phases of the program life cycle, over which the Program and Project Management Office (PgPMO) emerges, providing tools to support the program governance. Along with this transition, the three main collaborators—university, industry, and government—change their roles to support achieving the goals of the collaboration. The four drivers for the emergence of governance structure are fairness, transparency, responsibility, and accountability, according to which the main actors in the governance of program change their roles switching between leadership, partnership, and serving other actors.

Abstract

This chapter explains how the governance structure of university–industry collaboration programs evolves while transitioning from the strategic planning phase to the execution and delivery phase. A transitional phase is introduced between the two official phases of the program life cycle, over which the Program and Project Management Office (PgPMO) emerges, providing tools to support the program governance. Along with this transition, the three main collaborators—university, industry, and government—change their roles to support achieving the goals of the collaboration. The four drivers for the emergence of governance structure are fairness, transparency, responsibility, and accountability, according to which the main actors in the governance of program change their roles switching between leadership, partnership, and serving other actors.
