4. TITLE OF PRESENTATION | 4 4 Title of presentation here | 4 Challenges we observe Increasing competition for funds Nationally and Internationally Governments more carefully distributing funds ROI of investment in research / Performance assessment National Priority Areas Stimulating Industry-Academia collaboration to increase innovation and economic growth Monitoring/reporting requirements Drive to Specialization e.g. EU Smart Specialization program (‘14-’20) Competition Focus and Excellence needed

5. TITLE OF PRESENTATION | 5 5 Title of presentation here | 5 Consequences Universities engaging in collaboration - to battle the competition Higher quality and impact Higher chances of winning funds Better insight needed in: University’s own position – What are my Strengths? Competitors and (potential) collaborators Universities to prove the value of their research to science, economy, society Strong Research Management required Improved efficiency and effectiveness
