Abstract

We currently witness an increased interest in ‘innovation platforms’ as an organisational model for stimulating innovation and development in agriculture and other sectors. This enthusiasm is shared by national and international research organisations, which expect that collaboration with platforms can enhance the relevance and impact of research. While the authors believe that there are indeed good grounds for embedding research activities in platforms settings, there are also many pitfalls. This report aims to support researchers in anticipating and avoiding such pitfalls.
