“…Based on the results, the studied institutions obtained the competitiveness level, synchronized with international scientometric ratings. The correct formation of marketing guidelines also lays the foundation for healthy competition between educational institutions (Moreno-Carmona et al, 2022;Alam et al, 2019).…”

The purpose of this work is to identify the functional links between key indicators of scientific activity and socio-economic development and to check whether the quality of scientific activity and the dynamics of innovative development are the key determinants of socio-economic progress. Following the chosen methodology, the paper forms an array of input data that characterizes the level of scientific and innovative activity, economic and social development. The principal component method is used to identify the most relevant indicators from each group and to introduce three latent variables that denote each group separately. A system of simultaneous structural equations is obtained as a result of establishing functional relationships between manifest and latent variables and building a structural model. In addition, the paper determines two clusters of the studied countries to confirm the obtained results through structural modelling. The study is conducted for 35 European countries based on 33 indicators, which characterize the quality of scientific activity, economic and social development during 2014-2020. The obtained system of structural equations confirms the hypothesis regarding the importance of scientific activity quality in terms of ensuring the socio-economic development of the country.

“…These are key for HEIs. Then there are the consequential ones, which are related to the surrounding environment, not only of the HEIs but also of the prominent stakeholders, such as employers, competitors, governments, industry/businesses and all surrounding community (Ferrero-Ferrero et al, 2018;Moreno-Carmona et al, 2022).…”

PurposeThis systematic literature review aims to identify the main areas of study related to co-creation and innovation in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), as well as the main external and internal stakeholders with whom co-creation is made.Design/methodology/approachThe empirical approach is based on 258 articles selected from the Web of Science (WoS), Clarivate Analytics and Scopus, Elsevier databases, with analysis of titles, abstracts and keywords following a research protocol. VOS viewer and CitNetExplorer software were used, with the twin aim of identifying publications with a higher number of citations and designing maps of reference word co-occurrence.FindingsThe analysis led to three clusters being identified: Cluster 1. Management and transfer of knowledge from HEIs to companies; Cluster 2. Co-creation and innovation in HEIs through cooperation between universities and companies; and Cluster 3. Universities’ third mission and their role in developing entrepreneurship education. The results of the literature clusters analysis led to proposing a conceptual model of analysis.Research limitations/implicationsDespite only employing two databases and the content analysis criteria, the three found clusters are linked, recognising the interplay between co-creation and innovation in HEIs, knowledge transfer to enterprises and the influence on HEIs' third goal.Practical implicationsThis systematic literature review highlights and gives a picture of the state-of-the-art in co-creation and innovation in HEIs, as well as presenting a model of co-creation and innovation in HEIs that can contribute to reinforcing the University-Industry-Community ties.Social implicationsThis study can lead to a better knowledge of the issue of co-creation and innovation at HEIs, as well as a deeper analysis of the sorts of relationships between HEIs and their stakeholders, as well as its impact on surrounding areas and influence.Originality/valueThe research highlights the interaction between HEIs and their stakeholders on a basis of value co-creation and innovation, providing mutual benefits for all involved, as well as greater development and recognition of HEIs and their surrounding regions’ image andreputation. A future research agenda is also presented on the topic of co-creation and innovation in HEIs.

“…Stakeholders are divided into internal and external. Authors studying stakeholders in higher education define management as a stand-alone [25], key stakeholder [11] internal to the university [26]. In Bulgaria, university management is still not professional.…”

This article outlines the motivational profiles of two types of management stakeholders in a Bulgarian university cluster striving for more Scopus and Web of Science publications. This article draws on stakeholder and self-determination theories. It uses tools of online survey (among 99 managers at 5 state Bulgarian universities), Kendall’s rank correlation coefficient, expert evaluations, induction/deduction and comparison. Three typical motivational profiles are obtained in this study: 1 for the department head stakeholder, titled “department-dedicated manager profile”, and 2 for the top management stakeholder, titled “job-satisfaction seeking manager profile” and “university-dedicated manager profile”.
