Özet
This study reveals the intensity of university-industry interactions in Turkey and aims to discuss the factors which influence the propensity of firms to collaborate with universities. Using firm level data collected by Turkish Statistical Institute in 2009, the propensity of firms to collaborate with universities is estimated by probit analysis. According to our results, innovation strategy of the firm is one of the main factors which drive firms to collaborate with universities in the innovation process. Firms that adopts an open innovation strategy, collaborate with external organizations and exploit external knowledge are open to collaboration with universities to generate innovations. These firms focus more on intramural R&D investments. The final remark is that the probability of collaborating with universities increases when firms benefit from public funding to perform R&D and innovation activities. This highlights the importance of policies and strategies to facilitate university-industry collaboration.
