Policies Aimed at Strengthening Ties between Universities and Cities
Universities are key resources in the cultural and business development of creative knowledge cities. They are generally highly integrated in the city and its economy, and play a crucial role in attracting and retaining talent. Strong ties between universities and cities seem to be essential conditions for further development. Policies may be developed to build on and enhance these strengths. Universities are also important for other reasons: national and international students visit the universities, and they create ‘anchor points’ for future settlers. They are key nodes in the networks of transnational migrants and migrants from inside the country, but also for all others who might be searching for jobs in growth sectors of the economy. Universities are vital elements in combination with personal networks and must be incorporated in urban policies.
