This special collection seeks research on technology transfer and innovation that emerges from collaborations between academic researchers and practitioners, policymakers, or other non-academic stakeholders. The collection particularly welcomes papers co-authored by academics working alongside technology transfer professionals, innovators, investors, and other industry experts, as such partnerships offer unique access to emerging phenomena and practical contexts.

The collection aims to publish rigorous, peer-reviewed scholarship that leverages collaborative engagement to develop new theories, access distinctive data, and address important questions in technology transfer while maintaining the journal's standards for methodological rigor and empirical credibility. Papers should demonstrate how boundary-spanning collaboration contributes novel, impactful insights relevant to both scholarship and practice.
