Business incubators have a very important role in developing entrepreneurship, since it gives large opportunity to its participants to develop their business skill during incubation. The Indonesian government today provides a major boost to the development of business incubators in universities or other form of higher education institutions. The purpose of this research is to analyze the validation of the establishment of business incubator in colleges. In Ministerial Regulation (Permen) Minister of Cooperation and Small Medium Entrepreneurship the Republic of Indonesia No. 24/2015 explained that the head of the university, the Rector or the Director may issue a business incubators license. Thus, internal validation can be done by university or college management through the issuance of Decree (SK) Establishment complete with personnel appointed as manager. Furthermore, the college, has to provide a place or room consisting of office space, tenant room at least 3, discussion room 1, and tenant production display room. External validation is carried out by tenants through their success of becoming independent businessmen after being forged or incubated in a business incubator for a maximum of 3 years in one incubation period.

Abstract This paper aims to investigate the experience and to identify the drivers of transforming traditional universities into Entrepreneurial Universities for ensuring sustainable higher education in Latvia. Due to the wide scope, Entrepreneurial University characteristics, the present research study is limited and focuses on the university providing access to students to business incubation facilities, relationships with business incubators for students, as well openness of university to collaboration and knowledge co-creation with its external stakeholders. Analyses of the experiences of universities of Latvia business incubators providing services to students, as well cooperation between higher education institutions (HEI) and local governments and entrepreneurs show that there is a positive trend. In opposite, such a trend can’t be observed towards building Entrepreneurial Universities in Latvia over the past 5 years. The results of the survey show that there is a need put higher efforts to assist young entrepreneurs in building cooperation networks and strengthening knowledge co-creation with external stakeholders.

Powerful Incentive

The degree conferred upon me by the University of America with the concurrence of the 24 universities of the Republic of Colombia is a powerful incentive to the work of the Inter-American Development Bank in the field of higher education and research in Latin America. You will forgive me, then, if I take this occasion to mention the role of the Inter-American Bank as the “Bank of the Latin American University,” a role which has placed it in the vanguard of an impressive process of international cooperation for the modernization and decisive expansion of higher education in the Hemisphere. The $55 million it has loaned to 71 institutions in 17 countries bear eloquent testimony to an abiding preoccupation of the Bank in its brief years of existence.

The aim of this study is to develop a Social Media-based Online Collaborative Learning (SMOCL) instructional model for higher education that can systematically guide lecturers or teachers to create a suitable blend of individual online lectures and face-to-face collaborative learning activities. Using the ADDIE instructional design model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation), a theoretically constructed beginning model was repeatedly upgraded and undertaken internal validation through expert reviews, while External validation was performed with one-to-one with students, small group, and field trials. The implementation of SMOCL at the Islamic University of Indonesia designed by the final model resulted in notable amounts in student performance, attention, relevance, trust, and satisfaction.

Methodological Aspects

Business incubators that are hosted by universities provide researchers and students from first cycle (undergraduate), second cycle (master), and third cycle (PhD) with ample opportunities for self-realization. However, these incubators primarily offer support in advising and developing new projects, such as creating competencies in research and applying new technologies, but they do not fully provide the entrepreneurial culture and leadership skills necessary for young entrepreneurs to turn ideas into reality. In this regard, it is very important to elaborate and create the structure of internal and external processes of the incubator right from the beginning. It is necessary to substantiate in detail the allocation of each element and determine the stakeholders and the type of activity, that form the model for structure and functionality of a business incubator hosted by a university. The purpose of the article is to reveal the methodological aspects oriented towards the formation of the structure and functioning of business incubators located in the academic environment which would allow the organization of internal and external processes for researchers and students of different cycles. It was found that the business incubator located within the University environment is a link within a complex system whose success depends on external factors, such as the macroeconomic situation, legal system in which the incubator carries out its activity and entrepreneurial culture, but also on internal factors, such as: technical-scientific, the abilities of the academic (university) staff, team activity, access to financial sources and programs, etc. The methodology of structuring university business incubators and their internal processes is an important factor in their development, as it provides an opportunity to evaluate and monitor the activities of these incubators.

The contemporary economic imaginary of the ‘knowledge-based economy’ is changing the perception of higher education in Europe. The goals of higher education are changing and reform of institutions is predicted. The present article examines these reforms and conceptualisations of higher education by presenting the results of discourse analysis of 47  international policy documents at the European level and two comprehensive national strategies of the Republic of Slovenia for higher education, research and innovation. Based on the analysis of the European documents, the article suggests that two main discourses are constructed: a) ‘the research-based society and economy’, and b) ‘reforming the university’. These present the emergence of a new idea of higher education at the international and national levels. The article investigates the extent to which these discourses are present in Slovenian higher education policy. The findings show that Slovenian discourse hesitates to embrace them fully. In particular, the idea of the managerial university is marginal in Slovenian discourse.
