Abstract

This empirical study analyzes university†business co†operation (UBC) from a distance†based perspective. Focusing on the UK's 48 largest research universities, we collected data from author affiliate addresses in 2008–2017 university†business research publications (UBRPs). The spatial proximity between university and its business partners listed in these co†authored research publications concerns three main distance zones: “local†(0–99 km); “regional†(100–499 km); “global†(500 km or more). The annual UBRP trends reveal a tendency towards UBC globalization. Several universities show signs of UBC glocalization, where the numbers of their global UBRPs have increased more rapidly than local UBRPs.
