Abstract

Universities have always contributed to the development of countries.

However, the concern with their contribution to regional development is recent

and derives from an intense globalization process and also from a new way of

looking at the competitiveness of regions and at regional innovation systems. In

this regard, the engagement of universities with others regional actors is expected

in order to provide responses to regional needs. The objective of this article is to

analyse the cooperative efforts between HEIs (Higher Education Institutions) in

the northern Parana region and their regional partners in the quest of regional

development.
