Abstract(s)
A I&D multidisciplinar realizada em cooperação permite responder a desafios complexos
com relativa rapidez. As organizações mais inovadoras começam a desenvolver mecanismos e
estruturas de colaboração que apoiam este tipo de iniciativa, numa tentativa de alargar as fronteiras
das suas bases de conhecimento. Contudo, a prática tem demonstrado que há, ainda, inúmeras dificuldades
na sua implementação, devido a uma variedade de factores inibidores; são poucos os casos
de sucesso conhecidos. Este artigo analisa a estratégia e a abordagem metodológica utilizada para
dinamizar um projecto de I&D multidisciplinar no quadro de uma rede interorganizacional designada
por “Casa do Futuro”. Apresentam-se as implicações do estudo na dinamização de redes baseadas
na I&D multidisciplinar.
While empirical research does indeed suggest that collaborative R&D has many desirable outcomes, it is also clear that collaborative work is difficult and expensive. The challenge becomes increasingly sharp as complex and expensive research questions require a large pool of resources and a combination of specialized disciplines. As a result, different organizations get involved in interdisciplinary projects to expand the frontiers of knowledge. This paper analyzes the strategy and methodological approaches used to mobilize interdisciplinary R&D within a university-industry network named “House of the Future”. We discuss the implications of our research for R&D networks design.
