- Abstract
- Some intermediate organizations have been created in order to boost every kind of innovation to encourage their collaboration between enterprises and universities. These intermediate organizations cannot materially get in touch with each enterprise and it is important for them to be able to contact the enterprises that are the most likely to develop any kind of collaboration. Our research focuses on segmenting the market of firms to contact. From the characteristics of an enterprise, we have to be able to determine if this enterprise will be receptive to collaboration. In order to carry out the segmentation of the enterprises, a decision-aid tool has been developed. This helping tool consists of a set of decision rules thanks to which the best enterprises are selected, namely ones the most able to develop a fruitful collaboration with a university. This tool has been developed using a Dominance-based Rough Set Approach (DRSA).
