The Triple Helix network of University-Industry-Government (U-I-G)
interactive relations is gaining increasing recognition in policy,
academic and industrial circles as a dynamic institutional basis for
wealth creation and sustainable development through the generation of
knowledge and its effective application. Given that considerable
