It is well known that the academic-industry relationship has its own difficulties and barriers. To determine the industrial perspective of complexity science, an emerging, highly cross-disciplinary area, the challenge is even greater than in more traditional academic fields. This report summarises the efforts of Complexity-NET to learn what complexity science themes interest industry based primarily on feedback from a survey of industrial respondents. Only partner countries in the Complexity-NET ERA-NET, established through the FP6-funded coordinated action, are included.
