Shaken by the dramatic inroads made by Japanese competitors into high-tech electronics, a number of US electronic firms joined forces in 1982 to form the first US for-profit research consortium: MCC (Microelectronics and Computer Technology Corp.). This book describes MCC's formation and the problems it encountered.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Technology driven economic development - Lessons Learned
    Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    If you have an interest in technology driven economic development, how to make research collaboratives effective or technology transfer this book is essential reading. The authors have produced a very readable, thoroughy documented and profoundly insightful account of the behind the scenes decision making that led to two major economic development "wins" for the city of Austin Texas. The first was MCC - The Microelectronics and Computer Technology Corporation. The second was SEMATECH - a research collaboration involving semiconductor manufacturing companies. A major strength of the work is the conceptual model that the authors used to not only frame the discussion but that also served to guide the strategic approach used by Austin to become one of the nations leading technology hubs. Even though the book was published in 1994, there are ample lessons for today that can be learned by any policy maker who is interested in what it takes to build a comprehensive strategy for technology business attraction and growth. It should be a required text for any academic treatment of economic development.

    Bobby Ray Inman was a CIA Director before he was on the board of MCC. It is public knowledge!
