The document discusses different approaches to valorization of research results at Alexandria University over the past 40 years. It describes four main approaches: open science, technology transfer, open innovation through collaboration with companies, and creation of spin-offs. Under open science, universities publish research for dissemination; under technology transfer, intellectual property is licensed; open innovation involves direct collaboration between researchers and companies; and spin-offs are new companies based on university research.

4. VALORIZATION OF RESEARCH RESULTS
Valorization is the use, for socio-economic
purposes, of the results of research financed by
public authorities. It represents society's direct
and indirect return on the public sector's
investment in research and development.

5. The approaches to valorization and its
potential benefits for the different
stakeholders have improved significantly
in Alexandria University over the past
40 years,

7. More recently, the growing emphasis
on innovation has strengthened the
cooperation between universities
(as public research organizations)
and the business sector.

10. OPEN SCIENCE MODEL
open science model: valorization is
primarily effected through education
and the publication of research
results.

11. 1. "OPEN SCIENCE"
Universities and its research centers
traditionally share their insights through
publications.
Rapid dissemination of research results
supports the advancement of science very
effectively.

results published by other researchers,
provided they cite their sources.

Technology transfer model (management and
use of research outcomes, intellectual property
rights):

research results ,intellectual property and
exploit it through licensing, which may be

open innovation model or exchange of
knowledge: this recent development is a
consequence of the industrial revolution
referred to as the knowledge economy.

18. OPEN INNOVATION MODEL - EXCHANGE OF
KNOWLEDGE
Direct collaboration with companies is probably
the most efficient form of valorization. The
research and development competences are
complementary, and the interaction between
the two approaches is, in itself, a catalyst for
innovation.

19. OPEN INNOVATION MODEL
Contract research has existed for a long time
and is the more frequent form. It involves one
company sub-contracting a clearly defined
research or development project to a public
research organization selected for its research
competences and/or equipment. The company
usually claims ownership of the results, and the
public research organization does not retain
any intellectual property beyond the possible
enhancement of its know-how.

20. OPEN INNOVATION MODEL
Collaborative (competitive) research is a
more recent phenomenon tying in with the
open innovation concept. Public research
organizations and companies jointly select a
research area and agree on a division of tasks
that reflects their respective competences.
Individual partners retain ownership of the
results they have generated, and all partners
jointly decide how to manage any exploitation
rights.

organization
