Opening Up

In the March 1993 issue of Industry and Higher Education, Matti Otala identified and briefly summarized major trends in cooperation between industry, R&D centres and universities. These trends were seen in the context of the fundamental changes which industry is experiencing in its operations, structure, mores and economics – changes which are the effects of intensifying international competition, shifting societal values, new organizational ideals, and the restructuring of several world-economic blocks. This follow-up article looks specifically at the practical impacts of these changes on university–industry relationships and focuses on the increased need to ‘recycle’ employees who have lost their skills competence, and the opening up of the universities for more and larger research projects. The authors argue that the competitiveness of European industry is at stake and highlight measures which must be taken to ensure its survival.

European Industry

The concept of Industry 4.0 turns 10 years old in 2021. This milestone calls for renewed inquiries to review the current efforts of the European Union (EU) and its Member States towards the modernisation of European industry. In 2018, the European Commission published the Digital Transformation Scoreboard 2018: EU businesses go digital: Opportunities, outcomes and uptake, which reports on the readiness for the digital revolution focused on building an economy in line with the concept of Industry 4.0 at three levels: European, national, and business. This study shows how much still remains to be done. At the same time, it identifies some of the key elements contributing to the success in this area, i.e., the digitisation of machines, Big Data, robotics and artificial intelligence, which represent the very essence of the idea of revolution 4.0. The aim of the paper is to determine the extent to which the new strategy for industry proposed by the European Commission in 2020 follows the concept of Industry 4.0. Quantitative and qualitative research methods were used. Statistical analysis was used to demonstrate the importance of industry in the economy of the European Union between 1998 and 2019 in terms of the share in the added value created and the significance for the labour market. The descriptive methods used include a review of the literature and research on the concept of Industry 4.0 and an analysis of the latest strategic documents of the European Commission (EC) in relation to industrial policy.

This article aims to illustrate the factors determining the process of knowledge creation and innovation, focusing on interactive learning, the sharing of tacit knowledge and the development of creativity. It then compares three different forms of regulation of economic relationships - the free market, governance, and government models - focusing on promoting a greater speed of change more than the static factors of competitiveness. Finally, it illustrates the characteristics of competence centres as a new tool of innovation policy which may be appropriate in the evolution of European industry towards the knowledge economy.
