Abstract

University-industry partnerships (UIPs) are widely viewed as essential in raising research capability and economic performance in organizations and nations. In many countries, governments commit significant funds to such 'strategic' collaborations. Despite this, there is still a relatively poor understanding of the interorganizational dynamics of these industry university partnerships and their projects, particularly in management research. Using an interorganizational, social world perspective, we examine a management research project we
were involved in with industry partner managers and specialists over a four-year period. First, we identity and describe the salient social worlds and the competitive funding application that was used as a boundary object. Then, we map the trajectory of the boundary object through four negotiated phases: origins, application, implementation, finalization. Finally, social world
complexity and the significance of the temporal dimension are discussed.
