Despite the long-standing historical focus on university/industry relations and all the efforts to bring these two together, university/industry relations have experienced ups and downs, which calls for a full collaboration on both sides relying on mutual capacities. To address this need, Khatam University introduced the office of Plan Deputy in 2021 in the hope of contributing to Innovation and Technology by making use of available potentials and capabilities at the university. With these revisions in the organizational structure and assignment of new responsibilities pertaining to university/industry relations, Khatam University is planning to address the research and technological needs of both society and industry by enhancing collaborations and synergies between the university and industry, especially Pasargad Financial Group.
