Close collaboration with industries is key to university success. There is a trend of bringing industry to university campus to enhance student employability and technology transfer. The chapter cites many examples including: the Boeing Advanced Research Center on the University of Washington’s Seattle campus, IBM’s Research and Development Laboratory at the Melbourne campus, Microsoft’s global Station Q quantum at the University of Sydney, and Siemens’ Industry 4.0 “Factory of the Future” Swinburne’s Melbourne campus.
