其他摘要：We analyzed collaborative research contract information of 2004-2013 financial years, in order to clarify the situation of University-Industry research collaborations and the geographical distribution of the partners in Kitami Institute of Technology. We obtained following results. 1) Cooperative researches with enterprises occupy about 62% and those with organizations that are not companies occupy about 38%. 2) In case of partners of large enterprises, regions with a large number of cooperative research are in the order of Kanto, Hokkaido, Tokai, Tohoku and Kinki. The cooperative researches with large enterprises that are located in Kanto area are increasing. 3) In case of partners of small and medium-sized enterprises, the partners that are located in Hokkaido, Kanto, Kinki and Tokai areas occupy about 98%. While the cooperative researches with small and medium-sized enterprises in Hokkaido are decreasing. 4) Partners of the cooperative researches with non-companies organization are located mostly in Hokkaido, particularly in Okhotsk area. The tendency of decreasing of cooperative researches between Kitami Institute of Technology and companies in Hokkaido is thought a big problem for promoting of the local innovation.
