This paper examines how the Japanese government could improve working relationships between researchers in universities and in private companies to provide a more stimulating environment for economic growth in Japan.After discussing Japanese university regulations which preclude cooperation between universities and private companies, I will document how Stanford University has contributed to the rapid growth of Silicon Valley, using examples Stanford University, such as consultant activities, sponsored projects, and gifts. Finally, I will have some recommendations about cooperation between universities and private companies based on the above discussions. My recommendations are that 1) Japanese companies should imitate U.S. companies that give gifts to universities without expectation of any direct return, 2) the Japanese government should encourage professors to do consulting work furthermore though administrative rules have already been amended to allow off-duty consulting from April 1997, 3) provide tax exemptions for gifts from individuals to universities, and 4) try various methods to encourage cooperation between universities and private companies.
