Public-private partnerships (PPPs): CENIT Program Critical factors that determine the success of CENIT Program • Higher contribution of resources. • Risks and costs are shared. • It allows to take advantage of economies of scale. • It avoids the duplication of R&D expenditure and favors the exchange of knowledge. • It facilitates the link between basic R&D and applied R&D, more devoted to the market. • Synergies and complementarities between research entities and firms(qualified employees, resources for research, …).

  19. 4. Public-private partnerships (PPPs): CENIT Program Critical factors that determine the success of CENIT Program • International projection (Framework Program, new markets,…). • Learning for the future collaborations. • It encourages R&D to be more strategic. • Corporate branding improvement. • Information access improvement. • It generates positive externalities for other sectors.
