Titre : The valorisation of research of small and medium-sized universities within an innovation system Auteurs : Vanessa Casadella, Sofiane Tahi, Revue : Technology and Innovation Numéro : Issue 3 Volume : 6 Date : 2021/05/7 DOI : 10.21494/ISTE.OP.2021.0652 ISSN : 2399-8571 Résumé : As both a flexible and relatively new concept, the Innovation System (IS) serves as a reference in orienting innovation and/or Science and Technology (S&T) policies. It has, however, been less used in the interrelationship between the productive and educational systems. The valorisation of research makes it possible to forge university-business links by making the results, knowledge and skills of research usable or marketable. Our article highlights the valorisation of university research in the University Picardy Jules Verne (UPJV) and its impact within the Regional Innovation System. What are the forms of its valorization within the framework of the French Small and Medium University (SMU) that it represents? Does it have specificities related to its size? How does it create and transfer knowledge with the local and national productive sector? We will work on all of these questions, using a methodology based on both secondary sources, but above all, on a quantitative and qualitative carried out with central services, VP Research and Laboratory Directors of the UPJV.
