INTRODUCTION

Industrial sector serves as the backbone of a country as far as its GDP growth and corresponding economic stability is concerned. However, the competitive edge of an industry, in the international market, always remains under threat in the absence of an active R&D infrastructure of its own or in collaboration with other relevant partners. Academia, on the other hand, serves as the hub of knowledge, great ideas, and potential innovations. It also trains the human resource required by the different sectors of a country especially the industrial sector. The Academia – Industry collaboration is, therefore, an essential requirement for the industry to tap in the relevant expertise and for the researchers in academia to execute their research plans in the relevant industrial enviroment.
