Abstract
Much research has focused on multiple models of corporate management in business and industry. However, few studies have examined the role of corporate management in managing strategic research. The role of corporate management in public-funded research institutions for strategic programs in defense and space sectors is the point of discussion in this chapter. The need for a more efficient model is brought out by conducting a survey and analyzing the results. A new framework with multilevel-networked architecture is proposed.
