The article “Informal industry–university partnership in gaming education and research: a case study in Macao” by Carlos Siu Lam has been published in Asian Education and Development Studies, Vol.11 Issue 1(Scopus).
The aim of the paper is to present a model of a university–industry partnership in gaming education and research. It analyzes the interactions and knowledge transfer between the two parties in Macao.
The paper has shown that the partnership has provided clear benefits to both parties and the government is an influential power that can enhance collaboration. Although the informal partnership involves considerable time and efforts, it is flexible in comparison to the formal approach. Despite this, the knowledge transfer tends to focus on general issues to avoid being appropriated by competitors.
