Description
H.Q. is a medium size company in specialty chemicals for a variety of applications. One of the industrial segments in which H.Q. is leading is that of the chemistry for tanning and finishing leather. Since chrome-based tanning has some polluting consequences, H.Q. engaged in a research project to develope non-polluting alternative chemicals. H.Q. approached this project in partnership with important European tanneries and applied to the Eureka program. The case presents aspects related to the R&D partnership formation and its operation.
