This work discusses the generally accepted idea that public–private cooperation only generates unilateral transfers of knowledge from public research and development (R&D) institutions to industrial firms and suggests that there are collaborative patterns in which the generation of knowledge is joint and it is characterized by the presence of bidirectional flows of knowledge. Through a multi-case study, this aspect is investigated in three public–private partnerships in the Argentine biopharmaceutical sector, focusing in particular on the knowledge flows and the identification of possible learning processes that the public part develops when cooperating with firms. The main findings and contributions of the work are that knowledge in the hands of the industry flows towards the public part, strengthening its R&D capabilities, that all the benefits received by the public part can be understood in terms of learning and that science–industry cooperation is compatible with the enrichment of the public research agenda.
