Abstract

Partnerships between universities and industry can often bring much needed rewards to both parties. This paper outlines the details of an attempt to take the lessons learned from a successful partnership between one company and Purdue University and extend that model into a statewide program that can benefit Purdue University, industry and local communities in the state of Indiana.
