Abstract: The rapid development of technology and knowledge-based economies has drawn attention to the linkage between academic institutions and private industries. Universities are a major source of knowledge creation; different industries are increasingly recognizing the importance of scientific knowledge creation and seeking alliances with universities to not only enhance their knowledge base but also gain a competitive advantage. To facilitate university–industry collaborations (UICs), financial support from governments and industries is necessary for resource allocation. This study investigates the effects of UIC funding on universities’ technology innovation performance in Taiwan. The Taiwanese government has implemented a variety of policies and programs to enhance the research innovation capability of universities and bridge the gap between academic research and industrial application. Three fundamental factors of UIC environments within universities—namely, management mechanism, innovation climate, and reward system—are identified as critical antecedents of UIC funding and universities’ technology innovation performance. The results reveal that UIC funding is directly instrumental to universities’ technology innovation. The UIC management mechanism and innovation climate within universities support diverse UIC funding. In addition, mechanism incentives affect directly and moderately university researchers’ involvement in and contribution to technology innovation.

Smart Environments and Techno-centric and Human-Centric Innovations for Industry and Society 5.0: A Quintuple Helix Innovation System View Towards Smart, Sustainable, and Inclusive Solutions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the aviation sector, as a case in point for a smart environment and as an example for Industry 5.0 and Society 5.1 purposes, and tried to identify which are the optimal solutions for the implementation of the new human-centric logics of I5.0, analyzing them on the basis of the actual benefits for the ecosystem, going beyond the self-referential aptitude of the firm to instill technological changes and managerial visions.
Establishing successful university–industry collaborations: barriers and enablers deconstructed
TL;DR: In this article , the authors explored the establishment of a successful University-Industry Collaboration and considered a range of perceived barriers and enablers through four emergent evolutionary phases: embryonic, initiation, engagement and established.
The costs of collaborative innovation
TL;DR: In this article , the authors identify three implicit assumptions in current research that prevent a sound analysis of the costs of collaborative innovation and advance a new cost theory based on the integration of studies from several research fields and explanations provided by three main economic theories: transaction cost economics, game theory and the knowledge-based view.
Mutualism in ecosystems of innovation and entrepreneurship: A bidirectional perspective on universities’ linkages
Paola Rücker Schaeffer,Maribel Guerrero,Maribel Guerrero,Bruno Brandão Fischer,Bruno Brandão Fischer +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assume the notion of mutualism, based on the biomimetic rationale of eco-system studies that involve bidirectional flows of resources and capabilities to generate interactions and value co-creation among agents.

Coefficient alpha and the internal structure of tests.
TL;DR: In this paper, a general formula (α) of which a special case is the Kuder-Richardson coefficient of equivalence is shown to be the mean of all split-half coefficients resulting from different splittings of a test, therefore an estimate of the correlation between two random samples of items from a universe of items like those in the test.
The Knowledge-Creating Company

Abstract: Abstract How has Japan become a major economic power, a world leader in the automotive and electronics industries? What is the secret of their success? The consensus has been that, though the Japanese are not particularly innovative, they are exceptionally skilful at imitation, at improving products that already exist. But now two leading Japanese business experts, Ikujiro Nonaka and Hiro Takeuchi, turn this conventional wisdom on its head: Japanese firms are successful, they contend, precisely because they are innovative, because they create new knowledge and use it to produce successful products and technologies. Examining case studies drawn from such firms as Honda, Canon, Matsushita, NEC, 3M, GE, and the U.S. Marines, this book reveals how Japanese companies translate tacit to explicit knowledge and use it to produce new processes, products, and services.

The dynamics of innovation: from national systems and "Mode" 2 to a triple helix of university-industry-government relations.
Henry Etzkowitz,Loet Leydesdorff +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Triple Helix of university-industry-government relations is compared with alternative models for explaining the current research system in its social contexts, and the authors suggest that university research may function increasingly as a locus in the "laboratory" of knowledge-intensive network transitions.
