Various studies have concluded that technology innovation contributes significantly to nation’s productivity, economic growth and standard of living.

Business leaders have also highlighted the role of innovation in national growth, competitiveness and quality of life. Fast moving global technology based business and need of access to proprietary technologies has increased the interest in public–private collaboration. Several new mechanisms for accessing new technologies are evolving. Further, there is an increase in the general understanding of IPR and its importance as a strategic tool. The emerging IP regime is creating new business opportunities and new models in research collaborations. These include new business and legal options to gain access to proprietary technologies through confidential agreements, material transfer agreements, licensing, purchase, and joint ventures.
