Barriers for the university-industry knowledge transfer in newly industrialised countries - an empirical analysis of the regional innovation system of Bangkok. This paper presents empirical evidence on university-industry relations (UIR) and knowledge transfer in the regional innovation system of Bangkok and broaches the issue of adapting well-established concepts for the analysis of innovation processes in newly industrialising countries. The potential for UIR is restricted due to 1) a weak and fragmented innovation system, 2) low technological and absorptive capacities in the industrial sector, and 3) slowly improving research capabilities in the scientific sector. Hence the level of UIR in the regional innovation system of Bangkok is mainly limited to occasional and personal modes. It is suggested to strengthen the knowledge transfer capabilities within both actors and to establish effective mechanisms for bridging institutional barriers between academia and industry

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of the interface organizations of a regional innovation system on the dynamics of knowledge transfer between universities and firms. Design/methodology/approach – The Triple Helix approach is used as a heuristic tool. The paper is based on a face-to-face survey to a sample of 800 innovative firms in Andalusia (Spain). The analysis focusses on the effectiveness attributed by the firms to technology transfer offices (TTOs), science parks and the regional innovation agency. Findings – Different organizations have different roles in the relationships that firms maintain with universities in a regional innovation system. Firm’s positive perceptions of TTOs, science parks and the innovation agency in the promotion of knowledge transfer are associated to the kind of relationships maintained with universities. Research limitations/implications – The research focusses on the region of Andalusia. Further studies could consider the applicability of the findings in other regional innovation systems. Practical implications – The paper helps governments and managers of TTOs, science parks and innovation agencies to understand the real use that interface organizations have for the industrial tissue of a regional innovation system. Originality/value – There have been few studies that observe together the value attributed by firms to the several interface organizations in a specific innovation system. The analysis contributes to the debate on the adjustment of the different roles of interface organizations in the promotion of knowledge transfer and innovation dynamics.

This article investigates the role of firm location and absorptive capacities in university-industry interactions. It observes firms in Science and Technology Parks (STPs) and other spaces of a regional innovation system. It focuses on the effects that location has in establishing diversified interactions, in comparison with other firm traits usually associated to drawing from universities. It also provides evidence on the importance of certain qualities of space, including closeness to universities and existence of institutions specialized on knowledge transfer services. The empirical basis is a face-to-face survey to 737 firms in the regional innovation system of Andalusia, Spain. Descriptive analysis and regression models have been used in order to detect specific influences on five key dimensions of knowledge transfer. The results show that being located in a STP has an influence only on developing informal contacts and human resources training. In contrast, other characteristics related to the absorptive capacities of the firm have an influence on engaging in R&D collaboration and commercialization. The conclusions and policy implications suggest that both the kind of firms and the interface institutions located in a STP make a difference when promoting knowledge transfer with local universities.

This paper presents a productive articulation model that serves as the basis for developing and enhancing regional innovation systems. The main objective is to generate a process of linkage between the industrial sector, academia, and government within which specific regional problems can be solved through the effective intervention of each of the actors. In addition to the process, a success story is presented from the State of Guanajuato, Mexico, which serves to visualize as a clear and defined process of articulation that allows a transfer of knowledge between the actors.

Recent literature has moved from a primarily economic perspective to awareness of the institutional role of a university in a regional innovation system. This chapter contributes to the scholarly discussions by combining the theories of institutional entrepreneurship and institutional logics to provide an analytical framework for understanding how universities can support institutional change in a regional innovation system. In particular, the authors consider the university as an institutional entrepreneur that not only initiates diverse changes in the institutional environment, but also actively participates in the implementation of such changes. The analytical framework is used to analyse the case of Tongji University in a regional innovation system in Shanghai, China.

The article examines domestic and foreign approaches to the definition of innovation and the innovative potential of universities as key factors in the development of a regional innovation system (RIS), since universities are one of the most important structural elements of a regional innovation system, representing a platform for generating ideas, their implementation and subsequent commercialization. Based on the content analysis, the author identified the main strategic steps of universities in the framework of integration into regional innovation systems to increase the indicators of innovation activity, reveal the essence of the strategy for changing the university management system based on the identified problems. Based on the two selected approaches, the author proposed to divide the forms and methods of integrating universities into RIS into five aspects: educational, entrepreneurial, scientific, economic, socio-cultural, digital. The author considers the modern experience of integrating the universities of the Russian Federation into RIS. It was revealed that many universities take part in regional projects, create small innovative enterprises, hold various grant competitions for regional scientists. Based on the results of the study, the author's view on the interaction of the university's performance and regional innovative development is proposed, taking into account the influence of various external factors on the university.

The article considers the University as the core of the formation and development of a regional innovation system that implements the innovative vector of development of the region and the country as a whole. In modern Russian society, including in education, problems related to the ecology of the child’s personality, with the processes of his socialization and individualization in the socio-cultural space are being updated. Concerning to this, changes in the socio-cultural conditions of the higher education system appears. There is a need not only to expand and deepen the professional competence of the teaching staff, but also to strengthen professional knowledge, practice-oriented orientation of students as future specialists. The article substantiates the need to create a Center for social-psychological partnership “Three Whales” as a single integral subject of innovative development of the system “university — future teacher — preschool educational organization” on the basis of the University. The main goal of the Center “Three Whales” is to improve the psychological culture of the subjects of the system “university — future teacher — preschool educational organization”. Primary psychological prevention is a priority area of its work.
