Streamlining Collaboration in an e-Research World
The Legal Framework for e-Research Project presented a public forum entitled, “Streamlining Collaboration in an e-Research World” on Friday, 13 June 2008 in Brisbane, at the Queensland University of Technology Kelvin Grove campus.
The Project’s 2007 survey report entitled Legal and Project Agreement Issues in Collaboration and e-Research: Survey Results showed that many stakeholders in Australia and overseas are interested in understanding ways in which they can better manage negotiation and contracting in the e-Research area.
Recognising that collaborative research projects between business, industry, universities and research sectors are often delayed or are not even started because of problems that arise in the negotiating and finalising of project agreements, the Project team welcomed some Australian and overseas experts who shared their experiences with and strategies for streamlining negotiation and contracting in collaborative and e-Research projects.
