Abstract
Collaborations between universities and industry are a driving force for innovation. While the benefits for both parties involved in such collaboration are numerous, so are the challenges that come with it. This paper shines a light on both – benefits and challenges - experienced in the H2020 project RETRAINER, a multi-national project in the strongly regulated field of medical devices.
This work was sponsored by the EU under the H2020 framework in the project ReTrainer (ID: 644721).
