Synergy evaluation of industry-university-research institute synergetic innovation system based on knowledge creation

AbstractIndustry-university-research institute (IUR) synergetic innovation (SI) has become the leading-edge innovation mode to promote significant knowledge and technological innovations in China. This article establishes an evaluation index system and evaluation model for system synergy of IUR-SI based on knowledge creation combining the innovation theory with a multi-level extension evaluation method. The index system divides the system synergy of IUR-SI into four subsystems including knowledge synergy capability, relationship synergy capability, innovation synergy capability and synergy performance. we verify the evaluation model taking IUR-SI system of a region in China as an example. The purpose of the paper is to systematically, scientifically describe and analyze various constituent elements of IUR-SI system, as well as various level indicators reflecting efficiency and effectiveness of the system, in order to find the key points of system operation, and enhance the level of collaborative developme...
