- Synopsis
- For more than twenty-five years, the biotechnology industry has been host to a profound and important experiment: the fusion of science and business. The significant challenges of integrating science and business have driven this sector to pursue novel organizational and institutional experiments that encompass various forms of collaboration between firms, business models for capturing value from innovation, definitions of what constitutes intellectual property, contractual arrangements to "monetize" intellectual property, the "rules" by which academic institutions and private companies interact, and the boundaries delineating private versus government research. This chapter offers a brief history of this experiment and outlines the major challenges facing the science-as-business industry.
