Abstract

Public policy is clearly committed to supporting research as a driving
force in regional development. However, few studies have yet to analyze
the relationship between governance and performance of research
group networks. An analysis of 11 multidisciplinary research networks
containing 83 research groups revealed that governance does in fact
influence network performance. Specifically, high-performance networks
are characterized by relationships having strong ties, formalized
structures and powerful groups with low centrality. These findings
suggest the need to improve network consolidation and to better define
decision-making bodies in order to ensure proper collective operation.
