To carry out the analysis, an online survey was applied to a sample of 305 participants residing in different Latin American countries, that is: Brazil, Panama, Colombia, Costa Rica, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Mexico. The core results reveal 15clear advantages of university-business linkages, including the transfer of research results and greater visibility for universities and their research groups. The main barriers emerging from the analysis, including financing problems, lack of human resources and lack of time management, varied by country, gender and age ofparticipants.
